An annual meteor shower known for its fast movement and explosions of color that persist longer than average will peak this weekend, though experts say the shower’s peak won’t reach a maximum until just before the next century.

There’s a strong chance you will be able to see the Leonid meteor shower from Nottingham this weekend or early next week.

In Australia, the Leonid meteor shower will reach peak visibility on the night of November 17, radiating from the constellation of Leo and producing about 15 meteors per hour. The meteors are produced by dust grains left behind by Comet Tempel-Tuttle and the best viewing time should be in the early hours of the morning, just after midnight.
