Yes, but in the Northern Hemisphere, most of it will be "visible" during the A.M.hours, rather than at night, though I shall be looking!Thank you! I subscribe to this as well.Love,n, always starry-eyedSubject: Fwd: Orionid Meteor ShowerTo: "MSers Life egroup" <MSersLife >Date: Friday, October 21, 2011, 12:27 PM

http://spaceweather.comWEEKEND METEOR SHOWER: Today Earth is entering a stream of debris from Halley's comet, source of the annual Orionid meteor shower. Forecasters expect the shower to peak on Saturday morning, Oct. 22nd, with more than 15 meteors per hour. Check http://spaceweather.com for links to a live meteor radar, sky maps and observing tips.

MASSIVE SATELLITE NEARS RE-ENTRY: The massive ROSAT X-ray space telescope is making its final spiralling orbits around Earth. Most experts agree that re-entry will occur during the early hours of Oct. 23rd over a still-unknown region of our planet. Sky watchers report that the descending satellite can be as bright as a first magnitude star and it occasionally "flares" to even greater intensity. For last-chance sightings of ROSAT in your area, please check SpaceWeather's online satellite tracker (http://spaceweather.com/flybys) or turn your smartphone into a ROSAT tracker: http://simpleflybys.com .
