The Taurids are a slow and long-lasting meteor shower, occurring every year from late October and through November.
Meteor showers are caused when the Earth travels through a cloud of cometary debris, and now, a special kind of sky spectacle is expected this month.
When is the next peak of the Taurid meteor shower? According to Royal Museums Greenwich, the Taurid meteor shower will peak in the Northern Hemisphere - where the UK is located - between Sunday November 12, and Monday November 13. Places like fields, hills and even just in smaller towns would be a good idea for viewing of the showers.
"They can be seen with the naked eye so there's no need for binoculars or a telescope, though you will need to allow your eyes to adjust to the dark."
