November not only offers sky gazers a glimpse of the “Beaver” full moon, which will be the largest full moon in almost 70 years, it will bring two incredible meteor showers that you won’t want to miss. On Nov. 12, the annual Taurid meteor shower will light up the night sky with meteors that are remnants left behind by the passage of the Comet known as 2P/Encke. With larger than normal “grains,” the Taurids often offer fireballs, as well as about 10-15 meteors per hour. Another meteor shower is currently adorning the skies with “falling stars” and will continue to do so until Dec. 3. The Leonid meteor shower, which will peak in the pre-dawn hours Nov. 17, comes from material left behind from repeated passages of Comet 55P/Tempel-Tuttle. Again, the waxing moon soon after the full moon will prevent the best possible view of the shower.
