Draconid meteor shower: How to watch
The shower will peak on Friday night
The Draconid meteor shower will reach its peak on Friday night in the sky across the Northern Hemisphere.
The short-lived shower, which occurs from October 6 to 10, marks the first since August's spectacular Perseids and is named from the constellation Draco.
That said, the shower only produces around 10 to 20 meteors per hour at its peak.
The Draconid meteors are caused by debris shed by the periodic comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinner, according to NASA.
