☄️ Taurids · peak Nov 7 · ~5/hr · 🌓 moon 45%

Wednesday, September 10, 2081 – December 10, 2081 All day

Peak: November 7, 2081, around 21:00 UTC — up to about 5 meteors an hour under a dark sky. The Moon will be 45% 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.
