Heads Up: Taurids Meteor Shower To Light Up The Skies Get Ready For Bright Fireballs

Every year from SeptemberNovember, the Earth passes through a broad stream of debris left by Comet Encke. The dust associated with the comet hits the Earths atmosphere at 65, 000 mph and burns up, creating the Taurid meteor shower. There are two streams of Taurid meteors known as South Taurids and North Taurids. Both branches are rich in fireballs and are often responsible for increased number of fireball reports from September through November. The Taurid meteor stream consists of an extremely wide roadway of farflung debris left behind Comet 2P Encke. The original Taurid meteor stream was perturbed by Jupiter into the two branches: South and North Taurids. The South Taurids predicted peak is November 56, 2023. The North Taurid s predicted peak is November 1213, 2023. Thanks for watching ,Taurids, meteorshower, fireballs Images credit: NASA, JPL, nemesis maturity channel Music credit: YouTube Audio Library
