The page of the National Astronomical Research Institute posted that on the night of October 21 – the morning of October 22, there will be an Orionid meteor shower. Traces of Halley’s Comet When approaching the sun It will begin to be observed from around 10:30 p.m. on October 21 onwards until dawn on October 22 in the constellation Orion. The highest average falling rate is approximately 20 stars/hour if the sky is clear and there is no rain. Expect to see the beauty all over the country. The “Orionid Meteor Shower” is caused by the Earth moving across the orbital path of Comet Halley (1P/Halley), which leaves behind a large amount of dust and small objects in the circle. orbit As it moved closer to the Sun in 1986, Earth’s gravity attracted dust and such objects to rub against the Earth’s atmosphere. A fire broke out. Seen as a flash of light resembling a fireball spreading out around the constellation Orion. They are yellow and green. Beautiful lines across the sky for the 2023 Orionid meteor shower that night. The moon will set behind the horizon at approximately 11:30 p.m., after which there will be no moonlight until dawn the next day. It also falls on Saturday-Sunday night. Therefore it is a good opportunity to watch the meteor shower. The best way to observe is with the naked eye. Choose a location that is free of distractions or as far away from city lights as possible. It will make the meteors more clearly visible. Although the Orionid meteor shower has a maximum average falling rate of only about 20 stars/hour, it is a meteor shower located in the constellation Orion. which is a constellation that is easily observed And there are many outstanding bright stars to see, such as the star Betelgeuse (orange-red), the star Rigel (blue-white), as well as the star Sirius, the brightest star in the sky in the constellation of the Great Dog. nearby. In addition, if you record the meteor shower phenomenon on that night You may even get a picture of a shooting star alongside some of the most beautiful stars in the sky, the Orionid meteor shower. It is a phenomenon that is observed between 2 October – 7 November every year. Therefore, we can wait to see its beauty every year. But if it is Halley’s Comet which is the origin of this meteor shower Calculations estimate that the comet will pass close to the Sun again in the middle of 2064, so we will probably see it again in another 38 years.
