The Southern Taurids will reach their zenith early Tuesday morning and the Northern Taurid meteor showers on Nov. 12 .

Both showers share the same parent source — originating from the debris of comet Encke .

When rocks from space enter Earth ’s atmosphere, the resistance from the air makes them very hot.

This causes the air to glow around them and briefly leaves a fiery tail.
