"Mark Your Calendars: Leonid Meteor Shower 2023 - A Spectacular Celestial Show!"

The annual Leonid meteor shower will peak on the night of November 17-18, 2023. This year, viewers can expect to see 10 to 15 meteors per hour under a dark sky after the moon has set. The meteors are debris from the comet 55P/Tempel-Tuttle and appear to come from the constellation Leo the Lion. To view the peak, watch late on the night of November 17 until dawn on November 18. The Leonids have produced meteor storms in the past, with rates as high as 100,000 meteors per hour.
