Make your transition from the work week to the weekend special Friday by stepping away from the bar and heading outside to check out the annual Draconid meteor shower, which peaks this year on October 7-8.

Skywatchers can enjoy two meteor showers in the month of October. The well-known Orionid meteor shower peaks near October 21 each year. But before the Orionids comes the Draconid meteor shower, peaking on October 7. This shower got its name due to its meteors appearing to trace their path back to a point near the head of the long, winding, far-northern constellation Draco, the Dragon. Slooh will host live coverage of the Draconids on October 7, 2016, so mark your calendar to join us for this event.
