Tonight, the Draconid meteor shower might prove itself to be the little engine that could.
I’ll just put it out there: The Draconids are often a dud. The American Meteor Society and the International Meteor Organization even omit the Draconids from their list of major meteor shower calendars. The Draconids often get overshadowed by the more prominent Orionids that peak later this month. But, the Draconids may triumph this year — and they’ll have the Moon to thank for its victory.
