Fall meteor season has begun, bringing with it the peak of the Orionid and Taurid meteor showers in late October. Sky-watchers should care because these showers offer a chance to see multiple meteors on a single night, adding to the excitement of the Halloween season. For the best viewing experience, look for dark skies with minimal moonlight to maximize your chances of spotting these meteors.
