You might want to do some star gazing this Friday! A major meteor shower will be visible here in Nova Scotia! It’s called the Orionid Meteor Shower! it’s calling for clear skies on Friday so you should be able to see around 20 to 30 showers an hour! The best time to look up is when it’s darkest so that should a little after 12am! Good luck!

have you ever seen a meteor shower or anything else strange in the sky? Elon’s satellites? Maybe something that you couldn’t explain? I find when you lay on your back and look for long enough you start to see all kinds of things moving around up there. Than again maybe that’s my eyes playing tricks on me!
