The sky now. The Moon is a waxing gibbous, 72% lit, and sets at 2:27 AM after midnight. The next full Moon is Sunday, Oct 25. Look for Saturn, bright in the east-southeast.

The Orionids meteor shower is active, peaking around Oct 21: at its peak, up to about 20 meteors an hour can be seen from a dark site. The bright Moon hides all but the brightest of them.
