Exploded Comet Debris Might Hit Earth Later Tonight

[carolinarider09]

We have "meteor showers" through out the year but, every once in a while there is one that might be "special".

In late 1995, Comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 exploded. Almost 30 years later, some of the debris might hit Earth.

Multiple forecasters agree that a meteor shower could erupt on May 31, 2022, when Earth runs into one or more debris streams from Comet 73P. The display could be as intense as a meteor storm (1000 or more meteors per hour) or as weak as nothing at all. No one knows how much debris is inside the approaching streams, so meteor rates are hard to estimate.

Whatever happens, people in North America are in a good position to see it. Almost the entire continent will be in Moon-free darkness when the shower peaks. Maximum activity is expected around 1:00 am Eastern Daylight Time (05:00 UT) on Tuesday morning, May 31st. The shower’s radiant (the point from which all meteors stream) will be almost straight above Baja California.

Went out last night with my zero gravity chair and didn't see squat other than a satellite or maybe the space station.  Not sure which but it was way up there and no blinking lights just moved in a straight line at a steady pace south west to north east.

Neither did I (see anything).   This was just a maybe probable encounter, that if it did happen would have been spectacular.
