Wednesday night marks a special treat for star-gazers: The annual Perseid meteor shower is back.

Sanden's recommended spots to watch the Perseids meteor shower:

  • Angeles Crest Highway
  • Vasquez Rocks in Santa Clarita
  • If you have time to drive to the desert, check out the party at Joshua Tree, or The Integratron in Landers.
