Skygazers will want to look up to the nightsky as a meteor shower is expected to pass Earth.
Debris left by Halley’s Comet will make up a meteor shower that is expected to peak on Friday night, October 21. The Orionid meteor is active throughout October, producing up to 25 meteors every hour, and remaining visible until the early hours of Saturday.
The phenomenon gets its name from the Orion constellation – which is one of the brightest groups of stars in the sky.
