The Northern and Southern Taurid meteor streams will be at their peak soon and patient sky-watchers may spot the slow-moving and often exceptionally bright meteors — including fireballs that leave mesmerizing trails across the night sky — that the meteor streams are known for.
While not the most prolific meteor showers, the Taurid meteor streams tend to have longer-lasting activity and a lengthier period of visibility compared to other meteor showers. They can be visible over several weeks.
In Arizona, enthusiasts can look for Taurid meteors in locations well away from city lights.
Here is everything you need to know about the Northern and Southern Taurid meteor streams.

What are the Northern and Southern Taurid meteor streams?
This cropped image shows a bright meteor from the Taurid meteor shower, photographed Nov. 6, 2015, by Channone Arif from Joshua Tree, California. A 30-second exposure was made with a Canon 6d -Rokinon 14mm, set at f/2.8 and ISO 6400. CC BY 2.0 license.
The Southern Taurid meteor stream is one of two branches of the Taurids meteor stream, the other branch being the Northern Taurids. Both are associated with Comet 2P/Encke, which is believed to be the source of the meteoroids that created this meteor shower, according to the EarthSky website.
Both branches of the Taurid meteor stream are known for producing relatively slow-moving and often bright meteors, including fireballs.
When can I see the Taurid meteor shower?
Both showers are currently active. The Southern Taurid meteor stream has been active since Sept. 23 and is expected to be visible through Dec. 8. The Northern Taurid meteor stream became active on Oct. 13 and should be visible through Dec. 2.
According to the American Meteor Society, the Southern Taurids will peak in the early evening of Nov 5-6 and the Northern Taurids will peak in the early evening on Nov 11-12.
