When is the rain of stars this 2025?
This year 2024, the peak of activity of the tears of San Lorenzo is expected during the night from Monday 11 to Wednesday, August 13 , which is when there are more fleeting stars (about 80 meteors per hour).
Anyway, if you are impatient for this moment, it will also be a good option at dawn of the days before and after the date indicated, since the Perseids take place from July 17 to August 24 .

Why are they called tears of San Lorenzo or Perseidas?
The Perseids name comes from the constellation of Perseus . This shower of stars is one of the four main rains of the year. It originates due to the remains thrown by the comet Swift-Tuttle , which are absorbed by the gravitational power of the Earth and disintegrate in the atmosphere about 100 kilometers high. That is what we see!
On the other hand, they are called the tears of San Lorenzo in honor of the saint , whose death is commemorated on the August 10 , coinciding with the dates on which this rain of meteors takes place. A parallelism is made among the tears that San Lorenzo poured while burning burned at the stake.
