You don’t have to be an astronomer to enjoy sky gazing, and that’s especially true during annual meteor shower peaks. Right now, the Orionid meteor shower is approaching its peak, with tonight being your best shot at spotting the “falling stars” associated with it.
The Orionids have been appearing in the night sky since early October, but as with any meteor shower of this size, it is expected to have a well-defined peak. On particularly active years, the peak of the meteor shower has provided upwards of 60 bright streaks per hour, making it well worth your time to gaze skyward tonight.
