inor\nmeteor shower producing only about 5-10 meteors per hour. It is\nunu
sual in that it consists of two separate streams. The first is\nproduced b
y dust grains left behind by Asteroid 2004 TG10. The second\nstream is pro
duced by debris left behind by Comet 2P Encke. The shower\nruns annually f
rom September 7 to December 10. It peaks this year on\nthe the night of No
vember 4. The new moon will leave dark skies this\nyear for what should be

SUMMARY:Leonids Meteor Shower
DESCRIPTION:<2021-11-17 Wed> November 17\, 18 The Leonids is an average sho
wer\,\nproducing up to 15 meteors per hour at its peak. This shower is uni
que\nin that it has a cyclonic peak about every 33 years where hundreds of
\nmeteors per hour can be seen. That last of these occurred in 2001. The\n
Leonids is produced by dust grains left behind by comet Tempel-Tuttle\,\nw
hich was discovered in 1865. The shower runs annually from November\n6-30.
It peaks this year on the night of the 17th and morning of the\n18th. Unf
ortunately the nearly full moon will dominate the sky this\nyear\, blockin
g all but the brightest meteors. But if you are patient\,\nyou should stil
l be able to catch a few good ones. Best viewing will\nbe from a dark loca
tion after midnight. Meteors will radiate from the\nconstellation Leo\, bu
t can appear anywhere in the sky. (copyright:\nseasky.org)
