Taurid Meteor Shower 2025: Fireballs Expected as Peaks Near in November

The Taurid meteor showers are back in 2025, bringing the long-running spectacle of northern and southern debris streams that occasionally yield brilliant fireballs. Centered on the constellation Taurus, these showers originate from the same parent comet—2P/Encke—and a sprawling debris cloud that traces a wide orbit around the Sun. As Earth slides through this dust trail in October and again through late autumn, observers can expect a mix of steady meteor activity and the occasional dazzling fireball.
