Original Note:
NNN: The radiant point of a meteor shower is the apparent *direction* a meteor comes from, but the actual *location* where it's visible can be anywhere in the sky. https://earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/radiant-point-of-meteor-showers/ Like most meteor showers, the best time for viewing the most meteors is between midnight and sunrise local time.
