Yes, it’s happening until March 22nd. Just remember it’s a minor meteor shower and the peak activity has passed.

I’m sorry it probably won’t be too active. No harm in having a look, you never know. For the most part between now and April, meteor shower activity is rather dormant.

Keep your head up and join the newsletter, I’ll send you a reminder.

Hi
I live in South Africa and there has been two incidents that i have seen orange lights crossing the sky. Not moving fast they were quite slow. 9 Jan 2012 I saw the orange circular object moving pass my house. it came pass three times. Lights flashed as it came pass the house. The secound encounter was 14 Jan 2012 this time It was much lower, brighter and bigger and this time without any lights flashing.

Could this have been a Meteors?

I am really excited about this one! It looks as if it will be big this year like in 2009.
Hears keeping fingers crossed for the above!

Nov 15, 2011: Facing east, I was looking up and about 10:05pm MST, I was looking at the seven sisters and as my eyes gazed southward and then toward the horizon I saw one fall to the southwest. It looked as if it was right across the street above my neighbors house. Location: SE Auroa, CO 80015.
Not sure if its a part of the Taurids, the Leonids or the a-Monocerotids.

Saw a large fireball over Murrieta ,Ca about 5:15pm. Appeared to break into 3 pieces just as it hit the tree line.

I just saw a HUGE one while driving home. I’ve loved watching showers for years, but usually don’t think to look at the schedule to plan to watch. This one took me by surprise. I was driving home and saw a greenish light just low enough to the southeast that I could see it through the windshield. I almost immediately recognized it as a meteorite and sure enough, after a brilliant travel across the sky, it petered out and disappeared. I haven’t seen one that big and bright in a LONG time, so I was thrilled! About to head back outside to look for more!
