Hey guys, I have a question for you... In few days there will be the Perseid meteor shower.
It should happen on 11-12 August and 13-14 August. Too bad I'm working night shift on both days...
Has anyone seen will there be a live broadcast somewhere online? I would really like to see that. I know it won't be the same as the real thing, but it should do the trick...

You might be falling for the "best meteor shower in human history" hype. I have no idea why anyone created that meme. It's guaranteed to disappoint.
The Perseids typically show about 60-90 per hour, and is one of a couple dozen showers over the course of the year. They happen to be fairly reliable in terms of a show, and it's in summer when it's comfortable to be outside. Sp they're popular.
No meteor shower is worth watching on a TV.
My favorites are the Capricornids, in December. Alas, where I live it's usually cloudy and I miss them.
Gist: don't fret, and catch another.
