ORIONID METEOR SHOWER: This weekend, a mild but pretty flurry of meteors will shoot out of the constellation Orion. The source is Halley's Comet. Although the comet itself is far away, ancient clouds of dust from the comet are nearby, and Earth is about to run through them. The best time to look is Saturday morning, Oct. 21st, just before local dawn: http://www.spaceweather.com/images2006/21oct06/skymap_north.gif

Finally, I had the chance to see the meteor shower this 4 a.m. I saw 3 shooting stars, and 2 major bright meteors. It took 30 minutes for me to look at the sky. Oh boy, it was so cold... but, I had a good fresh air. After that, I went to bed and had a good sleep. Thanks for letting us about the meteor news.
