Orionid Meteor Shower Will Peak On Monday And Tuesday, Dust From Halley’s Comet Will Be Visible

(CNN) — The Orionid meteor shower will peak on Monday and Tuesday, sprinkling remnants of Halley’s Comet in Earth’s atmosphere to create a dazzling display.
This meteor shower may not be the most spectacular of the year, but it delights in other ways. The Orionids appear each year between October 2 and November 7, according to the American Meteor Society.
The peak occurs when the Earth passes through a debris stream left by the Comet Halley as we intersect it’s orbit each
