A meteor shower on Saturday morning will present a rare greeting from the distant Oort cloud located at the far edges of our solar system.
The two-hour Aurigid meteor shower is predicted to peak around 4:30 a.m. Pacific daylight time on September 1, peppering Earth’s sky with up to 200 shooting stars an hour.
Scientists are already mobilizing to capture every ounce of data about the unusual occurrence, since it’s the only display of its kind expected for at least 50 years.
