Orionid Meteor Shower Viewing Guide

The Orionid meteor shower is expected to peak in the late night and early morning hours of Sunday and Monday. The meteor shower is active until November 22, but the best viewing conditions are required for optimal observation. Clear skies are essential for a good view, but the bright moon is expected to hinder the visibility of the meteor shower. To get the best view, find a spot away from city or street lights and lie flat on your back, taking in as much of the sky as possible. It is recommended to allow your eyes to adapt to the dark for less than 30 minutes before starting the observation. The Orionid meteor shower is a result of the remnants of Halley's Comet, which is a spectacular sight to behold. However, the moonlight could dim the views of the meteor shower, making it challenging for observers to see the remnants of the comet. With the right conditions and preparation, the Orionid meteor shower can be a breathtaking experience for stargazers.
