“Seven Years of Halley Dust” is copyrighted by Petr Horalek. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteComet Halley returns to the inner Solar System every 75 years. Its dusty debris creates two annual meteor showers: the Eta Aquarids in May and the Orionids in October. This composite image compiles Orionid meteors captured from 2015 through 2022, including those near the shower's peak on October 21.
