☄️ Draconids · peak Oct 9 · ~10/hr · 🌗 moon 47%

Saturday, October 6, 2096 – October 10, 2096 All day

Peak: October 9, 2096, around 00:00 UTC — up to about 10 meteors an hour under a dark sky. The Moon will be 47% lit: some moonlight, which will hide the fainter meteors. Meteors seem to come from Draco; the debris is from Comet Giacobini–Zinner. Usually quiet, but it has stormed, when the Earth crossed fresh trails of its comet. Peak times and rates: the International Meteor Organization's working list.
