I caught many #Orionid meteors overnight, but these two fireballs really stand out! Notice that the first one is illuminating the foreground! Crestone, Colorado USA #astronomy #astrophotography #meteor

The #Orionid #meteor shower peaked on Saturday 21st but unfortunately I was clouded out. 🙄
But on the 19th my #GMN Global Meteor Network cameras still managed to pick up a few Orionids (almost 100 between the 2 cams).
Also picked up a few meteors from other showers including: Epsilon Geminids
Leonis Minorids
Chi Taurids
Southern Taurids.It is a relatively busy time of year for meteor showers.

We're past the peak of the #orionid #meteor shower so here's a quick round up of what UKMON saw on their cameras:
21,000 individual detections by 191 cameras across the UK. Half of these were matched between stations and led to 1672 confirmed Orionids. The brightest was mag -3.3. These numbers are roughly the same as last year, though of course the shower isn't fully over yet. More info here:
https://archive.ukmeteornetwork.co.uk/reports/2023/ORI/index.htmlNext up, the Taurids, with the southern branch peaking around the 30th (...)

The beautiful #Orionid #meteors shower is peaking this weekend, so remember to look up if you're in a place where the night sky is visible. 23 per hour expected.
“This year, the Orionid shower will continue until November 22, overlapping with several other showers, including the Northern Taurids, which will peak the night of November 11 to 12, and—very briefly—the Geminids."

Did you guys also know that #comets aren't special and aren't traveling any faster than any other #asteroid or other object out there, and they're not hot or on fire?
They're actually ice #balls, and the #sun makes the ice evaporate and then the solar wind (particles from the sun) blows that "atmosphere" away from the sun, creating the tail.
The tail doesn't even have anything to do with the direction that the ice ball is moving! The tail blows away from the sun. That's it.
A comet is literally a solar windsock.
Why did they never teach us this in school? Why did they allow us to think that comets were special fireballs moving at the speed of light across the galaxy?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comet#Nucleus
Anyway, tonight and tomorrow night is the #Orionid Meteor Shower, which apparently is made up of debris from #Halley's #Comet. That's what got me on this topic.
So there, #Science Schmoes. Enjoy.

I was hoping to catch some of the #Orionid meteor shower tonight, but as I was setting up and doing test shots, it started clouding over.
But here's quite a clear shot, before the clouds got in the way, of #Jupiter (that bright thing towards the top right) and the #Pleiades (the cluster of stars towards the top left).
Shot with #LeicaQ3.
