On October 5-6, residents of the Northern Hemisphere will be able to observe the peak of the October Camelopardalids meteor shower.
The Camelopardalids will be the first meteor shower in October. You can see it in the constellation Giraffe. The number of meteors is expected to be about 5 per hour, but the waning moon will not interfere with observation too much, and the location of the radiant will allow you to look at the “shooting stars” all night.
The origin of the flow remains a mystery, reports starwalk.space. Meteor showers accompany any comet, but the space object that became the source of the Camelopardalids has either not yet been discovered or has already collapsed.
