     Subj: Taurid Meteor Shower
     Space Weather News for Nov. 11, 2012

     TAURID METEOR SHOWER: Earth is passing through a stream of gravelly
     debris from Comet Encke, source of the annual Taurid meteor shower.
     Because the debris stream is not very congested, Taurid meteor rates
     are low, no more than 5 per hour. The special thing about Taurids is
     that they tend to be fireballs. Check http://spaceweather.com for
     the latest videos and images of the display, which is expected to
     peak around Nov. 12th.

     Don't just watch meteors, wear them: Authentic meteorite jewelry is
     available in the Space Weather Store:
