DRACONID METEOR SHOWER TO PEAK ON TODAY, OCT 8 NIGHT AND THERE’S A CHANCE OF AN OUTBURST.

The meteors come from the debris of Comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinner, with the radiant in the constellation of Draco - hence the name. The Draconids have not been particularly active in recent years - the best displays occurred in 1933 and 1946.

In 2025, the meteor shower coincides with the full Harvest Moon which rose on the night of the 7 October. With extra light in the sky, it will be less visible.
The Draconids will be best viewed in the evening, when the constellation of Draco is high in the northern sky.
Find a dark spot away from city lights and allow your eyes around 15 minutes to adjust to the dark. Look to the north - you will not need binoculars or a telescope as the shower will be visible to the naked eye.

The annual Draconid Meteor Shower—a famously unpredictable event that can produce anywhere from a handful to over a thousand shooting stars per hour. The odds of an outburst or storm occurring are slightly higher this year. Because the meteors' parent comet, Comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinne, recently reached its closest point to the sun in March 2025, dense, fresh debris could make for a dramatic showing.

So this year some experts are predicting a much more dramatic show in the sky this year. Every few decades or so, the Draconids create a massive outburst with hundreds of meteors an hour visible from some locations on Earth. The last outburst peaked on Oct. 8, 2011. An even rarer—and more exciting—possibility is a Draconid meteor storm, the likes of which last dazzled stargazers in 1946. With over 1,000 meteors visible per hour, it reportedly looked as if "the stars were falling like rain."
