This is chaos. We passed the Draconids meteor shower. The duration of that shower was from October 6th to 10th. It peaked back on October 9th. So we won't probably see too many of those, if any, of those. But we do have the Uranus. The meteor shower extends from October 15th to 29th, with a maximum occurring on the morning of October 21st. That was this morning. Maximum hourly rate reaches about 20. And the meteors are described as fast. So I'd love to hear any observational reports from you guys, if you happen to have been up early and looking for those Orionites early this morning before sunrise. They'll still be plentiful. Not as many as at the peak, but still be plentiful tonight and tomorrow morning as well. And they'll slowly die off towards the end of the month. The southern torus. This meteor shower is active from September 10th to November 20th. Maximum occurred back on October 2nd. The maximum hourly rate was five meters per hour. And the meteors are described as bright and move more slowly than typical meteors, making them prime subjects for imaging and viewing. So there might be one or two of those still lingering well into November. So keep an eye out for those southern torus. OK, comments. I'll get into comments in just a sec.
