I know that the VUE console will show meteor showers, etc. if you press TIME and change from time-of-day to sunrise-sunset times.
I see this right away on my VUE console, but the only change on the VP2 was to display sunset and sunrise time. I'll watch it for a while.
If your display is showing the current time and date, you might try selecting the alternate TIME display and see what happens.
The meteor showers might be unique to VUE. It displays in the WxCen area.
