Orionid meteor shower peak expected this weekend, potentially producing 10-20 meteors/hour.

The Orionid meteor shower, originating from Halley's Comet, will peak this weekend, with optimal viewing expected on Monday night after the supermoon has waned. NASA describes it as one of the year's most stunning displays, typically producing 10 to 20 meteors per hour, with potential for higher rates. Visible without a telescope from both hemispheres, the best viewing times are after midnight, especially facing the constellation Orion.
