☄️ Taurids · peak Nov 6 · ~5/hr · 🌘 moon 29%

Monday, September 10, 1928 – December 10, 1928 All day

Peak: November 6, 1928, around 15:00 UTC — up to about 5 meteors an hour under a dark sky. The Moon will be 29% lit: some moonlight, which will hide the fainter meteors. Meteors seem to come from Taurus; the debris is from Comet Encke. Few but slow and bright, known for fireballs — the Southern and Northern Taurids together. Peak times and rates: the International Meteor Organization's working list.
