When is National Meteor Watch Day?

Every year on June 30.

What is National Meteor Watch Day?

National Meteor Watch Day celebrates the science and wonder of shooting stars—bright streaks made as meteoroids burn up in Earth's atmosphere. It invites people to look up, learn, and share the night sky with loved ones. The date echoes the 1908 Tunguska event, a massive blast believed to be caused by a meteoroid that flattened millions of trees.

How to celebrate

Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
