Orionid Meteor Shower Brings Some Pretty Spectacular Photos

The annual Orionid meteor shower peaked last night, and camera-packing skywatchers got some pretty great photos -- just scroll down for a look.



If you'd like to take photos of your own, you'll have another chance. Astronomers say more shooting stars are on the way tonight -- and perhaps for the next several days.
