Everything to Know about the 2024 Taurids Double Meteor Shower
Occasionally, the universe delivers us a hard double blow, much like the 2009 two-part miniseries Meteor (currently streaming on Peacock) depicts. In this fictional tale, Christopher Lloyd, Jason Alexander, and Ernie Hudson play an astronomer, rocket scientist, and military general who unite to prevent a catastrophic asteroid impact on Earth. However, their efforts to destroy the initial threat with our combined nuclear arsenal reveal that a second even larger fragment is still en route. In reality, our planet is currently experiencing a similar double blow from two related meteor showers called the Taurids.
