The Orionid meteor shower is expected to put on a good show tonight into the predawn hours Wednesday, weather permitting. This annual meteor shower is created when Earth passes through trails of comet debris left in space long ago by Halley’s Comet. The “shooting stars” develop when bits typically no larger than a pea , and mostly sand-grain-sized, vaporize in Earth’s upper atmosphere.
I think it would be funny to find
highpeople watching this and throw tiny rocks at them to see if one of them thinks it’s meteors. or I could I’d jump out of a shrubbery and shout “meteor ambush!” then run away.
I wish I lived near Zippy.
