Daytime Sextantid Show Ignites Meteor Shower Season

Earth is currently passing through a series of meteor showers, including the Orionids, Taurids, and the lesser-known Daytime Sextantid shower. While the Orionids are set to peak around October 20-22, lucky observers may also catch a glimpse of the upward-shooting Sextantids in the hour before dawn. The Taurids, known for delivering bright fireballs, will be visible at a rate of around two per hour over the next few weeks. These meteor showers are caused by debris from Halley's Comet and other celestial bodies, offering a spectacular celestial show for skywatchers.
