A Supermoon takes over, the Draconid meteor shower peeks through, and the Orionid meteors sparkle across the night sky. This meteor shower happens when Earth travels through the debris trailing behind Halley's Comet and it burns up in our atmosphere. Orionid meteors appear to come from the direction of the Orion constellation but you might catch them all across the sky.
