November 2016 Skywatch: Video Guide Look for the Leonid meteor shower around mid-month

November 2016 Skywatch: Video Guide Look for the Leonid meteor shower around mid-month

November 1, 2016 By Summer Brooks Leave a Comment

Pisces and Aries are in the zodiac, the band of sky through which the Sun appears to travel.

Triangulum, a simple geometric constellation, has been identified since ancient times. Look for it next to the Ram and the Fish.

The lovely Triangulum Galaxy resides here. It belongs to the same cluster of galaxies that includes our own Milky Way. Also known as M33, the galaxy is about 3 million light-years distant. It can be seen in a dark sky with binoculars.

November boasts the Leonid meteor shower.

This shower is the result of Earth’s annual passage through the dust trails left by Comet Tempel-Tuttle, which returns to the inner solar system every 33 years.

Look for meteors on the evening of November 17th and early morning of November 18th. Unfortunately, bright moonlight will make it difficult to see fainter Leonid meteors this year.
