If the supermoon wasn’t enough, October is treating skygazers to another celestial delight – the peak of the Orionid meteor shower.
This annual event offers a spectacular display of shooting stars, lighting up the night sky as Earth passes through debris left by Halley’s Comet. The Orionid meteor shower typically peaks in mid to late October, providing a fantastic opportunity for stargazers to witness dozens of meteors per hour.
To make the most of this celestial show, find a dark spot away from city lights and give your eyes time to adjust to the darkness. Whether you’re a seasoned astronomer or a casual observer, the Orionid meteor shower promises a breathtaking experience for all.
