You Won't Want To Miss This Week's 'Beautiful' Orionid Meteor Shower

NASA describes the Orionid meteor shower as one of the year's most beautiful displays, caused by Earth passing through comet Halley debris. Following the Lyrid, Eta Aquariid, and Perseid events, this stunning display is set to peak this evening. Forecasters predict clear spells for observers in Scotland to witness the event, which shares a common source with the spring Eta Aquariid shower as the planet continues its journey around the sun.
