The second Monday of October honors the Native peoples of the Americas - the first peoples of this land, and their histories, cultures and nations, which continue today.

The federal holiday on that day is officially Columbus Day; many states, cities and tribal nations keep it as Indigenous Peoples' Day instead, and a president first proclaimed it in 2021.

The estimate is how many you might really see from a dark spot here, allowing for how high the shower climbs and for moonlight. "Under a perfect sky" is the best case. The bar also counts the forecast cloud at the best time, so a clouded-out night sits at the bottom, as does rain on the radar now.

Also from Halley's Comet. Fast meteors that often leave glowing trails.
