Where they come from: Halley's Comet (1P/Halley)

Dust shed by Halley's Comet on its earlier passes. Earth meets Halley's stream twice a year: in May as the Eta Aquariids and in October as the Orionids.

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.

Comes from Halley's Comet. Best from the Southern Hemisphere, in the hours before dawn.

Mahavir Jayanti, the thirteenth day of the waxing moon of Chaitra, celebrates the birth of Mahavira, the 24th tirthankara of Jainism, in the 6th century BC. Jains visit temples, carry his image in processions and give to charity. The raised hand with a wheel on its palm is the Jain symbol of ahimsa - non-violence.
