The Draconids, a flurry of ice and rock debris from Comet 21P, are a meteor-shower rarity, most visible in the early night instead of early morning as is typical.
The Draconid meteor shower runs Oct. 6-10, peaking around 11 p.m. ET on Oct. 7, making nighttime viewing more accessible and enjoyable.
To successfully see the Draconids, viewers should look toward the constellation Draco in the north-northwest sky, particularly from locations with low light pollution.
Stargazing from a dark-sky park or wide-open field will enhance your chances of spotting meteors, so choose your viewing location wisely.
