The annual Orionid meteor shower that occurs over India every year in October as debris from Halley’s Comet will be visible once again on this Sunday morning. If you look towards the sky on Sunday morning you might be able to catch around 20-30 meteors to burn in Earth's atmosphere each hour at speeds of 66 km/sec. The best time to watch the Orionids is just after midnight (Saturday, Oct 21) and right before dawn (Sunday, Oct 22).
