Orionid Meteor Shower Peaks Overnight Tonight: Watch It Live Online

A meteor shower spawned by the famous Halley's Comet reaches its maximum overnight tonight (Oct. 21-22), and you can watch the celestial display online. However, if clouds or light pollution inhibit your view, you can watch the shower online via the Slooh Community observatory and NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center. The Slooh Orionids webcast will begin at 8 p.m. EDT (0000) GMT) and will be hosted by Slooh astronomer Bob Berman.
