Danger, Lyrids!
"This year the Lyrid meteor shower is predicted to peak around 22h Universal Time (6 p.m. EDT) on April 22nd — good timing for Asia but in daylight for North America. The shower is generally at least half as strong as its maximum for about 30 hours, so North American observers should be able to catch its rising and falling phases in the early-morning hours of April 22nd and 23rd, respectively."
Sky & Telescope's lawyers advised them to add, "if you venture outside even in daylight see above, be certain to wear appropriate protective gear, an old football helmut, bycycle helmut, whatever."
