(Possible) Taurid Fireball Meteor Shower

Keep your fingers crossed! Every now and then the Taurid meteor shower — normally modest — produces spectacular fireballs visible even in bright moonlight. Most recently this happened in 2008.

The Taurids are also made up of weightier material, pebbles instead of dust grains
