Two Meteor Showers Light Up The Night Sky This Week

  • What's left that 2020 has yet to throw at us? How about not one, but two meteor showers in the same week?
  • The Northern Taurid meteor shower will peak on Wednesday, Nov. 11th - known for its large number of fireballs - bigger meteors that explode in a flash of color and light.
  • On Nov. 17th, the annual Leonid meteor shower reaches its peak - with as many as 10-20 visible meteors per hour.
  • The best time to view both meteor showers is the hours after midnight and before dawn.
