Meteor showers, like the Orionids, are fascinating astronomical events that occur when Earth passes through debris from comets, creating bright, fleeting streaks in the night sky.
The Orionids peak from Oct. 20 to 21, but moonlight will hinder visibility for some of the fainter meteors this year, being over 80 percent full.
Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS recently became visible in the Northern Hemisphere, captivating audiences with its long, wispy tail, enhancing the cosmic events of this month.
The increased visibility of meteor showers and comets offers enthusiasts a remarkable opportunity to experience some of the universe's wonders right from their backyards.
