AI-generated summary
The Orionid meteor shower occurs every year between October 2 and November 7 when it passes through the debris trail left by Comet 1P/Halley.
As the Earth passes through the densest debris trail left by Comet 1P/Halley, which last visited the Solar System in 1986, we will witness a spectacular visual feast on the night of October 21 to October 22 (if the weather is clear).
The Orionid (Orionist) meteor shower, which occurs every year between October 2 and November 7, reaches its highest peak on the night of October 21-22.
The ideal time to watch this star shower, called "Orionid" because it scatters in the sky around the Orion (Hunter) Constellation, is between midnight and dawn on October 22, but it is also possible to see meteors until midnight on October 21.
Shooting stars will turn into a natural fireworks display as particles of this ancient comet enter our planet's atmosphere at a speed of 237 thousand 539 kilometers per hour and burn up.
Devices such as binoculars are not required to observe meteor showers, which are ideally recommended to be viewed from points away from city lights, street lamps and other light pollution elements.
You will need about 30 minutes for your eyes to adjust to complete darkness. After this adaptation period, you can enjoy the visual feast without looking at direct light sources such as a mobile phone or flashlight.

In the research conducted by astrophysicists from the University of Warwick, it was determined that the white dwarf star named WDJ1330+6435, 65 light years away from the Earth, shines in a pale green color.
Adana-born NASA astronaut Deniz Burnham shared the images of the SAFER qualification test and simulation training for the Expedition 76 mission at the International Space Station on her social media account.

The James Webb Space Telescope has detected a single strong emission line in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field. The signal is repeated in different observations, but its source cannot yet be determined. Researchers think that this signal may originate from an unknown celestial object or a new astrophysical event.

The Canadian Hydrogen Density Mapping Experiment (CHIME) team is mapping the radioglow of hydrogen to study the dark energy that is accelerating the expansion of the universe. Signals dating back 5 billion years provide new data on galaxy formation.

Caltech researchers examined the XLSSC 122 galaxy cluster, 10.4 billion light-years away, using data from the James Webb Space Telescope. The discovery invalidates existing cosmological models of mass concentration in the early universe.

NASA announced that the Perseverance rover on Mars broke Opportunity's record by traveling 45.22 kilometers and reached the longest driving distance on a planet other than Earth.
