A new study suggests that - in the year 2032 - Earth will encounter a thick part of the #Taurid #meteor swarm. The cometary debris in the swarm could bring an increased risk of explosions in Earth's atmosphere. Read more at: buff.ly/jBeftXo

Heads up, skywatchers: the Taurid Meteor Shower is active now through December 10! 🔭🧪
These exceptionally bright meteors are caused by debris from Comet 2P/Encke, which Earth passes through each fall.

The Taurid meteor shower is amping up! Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) is visible here after dark.

A closely cropped, tracked shot from last night of Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) with a bonus meteor sailing nearby. Guessing it’s either a Southern Taurid or sporadic meteor. Comet not naked eye visible.

Activity for the Northern Taurids meteor shower starts today. Similar to the southern component of the Taurids, 1-2 can be seen per hour on any given night, with the potential for some bright meteors. #Astronomy

BETWEEN NOV 11 AND 12, the sky opens to listen. 🌠 The Taurid meteors move slow, long enough for your soul to speak. Don’t wish. Ask. Say “I need,” not “I want.”

If anyone has clear sky tonight, and it's not too cold to stand outside, then there's a fairly decent chance of some meteor spotting as the Taurid shower will be peaking around midnight. 🙂🔭

One day we'll go through the densest part of the Taurid Meteor stream and get to relive the Younger Dryas Meteor Event (not hypothesis) first hand. Maybe soon. We've got a twice yearly shot at it. Last experienced June 30th 1908 over Tunguska. Maybe next time multiple impact/airbursts over populace.

Fun fact: Earth's passing through that stream of debris creating the Taurid meteor shower *every* September to November.
There's no evidence it ever caused mass extinction, worldwide flood, or an Ice Age.
And Göbekli Tepe's Pillar 43, btw, does not contain an encoded warning.

meteor observations have confirmed the Taurid Swarm's existence at meter and smaller sizes, our results indicate that the current mass budget of the swarm at 100 m sizes does not require an outsize parent to explain it. [5/5 of https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.03327v1]
