Fox News
The Eta Aquarid meteor shower will peak Wednesday evening into early Thursday morning, giving curious viewers the opportunity to see debris from the famous Halley's Comet.
As Halley's Comet – which made its last trip through the inner solar system in 1986 and will not return until 2061 – journeys around the sun, it leaves behind a dusty trail. When the rare comet approaches the Earth's orbit, it produces the Eta Aquarids, as well as the Orionids in October.More Related News
