The Leonid meteor shower peaks on November 18th, in what astronomers are calling an average show this year. Sky gazers can see anywhere from 10 to 15 meteors an hour, which is pretty typical for this shower. Look toward the constellation Leo and it’s brightest star Regulus. A nice bonus this year is the appearance of the planet Saturn, just below Leo.
