full Draconid meteor shower guide<\/a><\/p>\nGet away from light pollution and observe under a dark sky to increase your chances of spotting a meteor.
\nIf observing from your own garden, turn off all the lights so they don’t spoil the view.
\nAvoid using white lights such as torches and mobile phones, as this will spoil your dark-adapted vision.
\nIf you need to see in the dark, use a red light torch or turn your phone’s screen red in the settings.
\nWrap up warm, bring something to eat and perhaps a hot drink as well.
\nUse a reclining chair or sunlounger so you can look upwards without getting cramp in your neck.
\nAllow 20 minutes for your eyes to adapt to the darkness so you’ll be able to see more meteors.
\nFind the Draco constellation and then look about two-thirds up in the sky in any direction.
\nIf you can trace a meteor back to Draco, chances are you’ve seen a Draconid meteor.<\/p>\n
