Taurid Meteor Showers to Illuminate Night Skies in November

The Southern and Northern Taurids will peak a week apart, offering bright fireballs visible until December.

The Southern Taurids are set to peak on the night of November 5, while the Northern Taurids will reach their peak on November 12.
Both meteor showers originate from the debris of comet Encke and are known for producing bright and long-lasting fireballs.
Optimal viewing conditions for the Southern Taurids will occur under a crescent moon, while the Northern Taurids may be affected by a fuller moon.
NASA and experts advise stargazers to watch for meteors after midnight when the sky is darkest and Taurus is high.
Despite a lower frequency of meteors, the Taurids are expected to be more active than usual, with visible fireballs continuing into December.
