      Explanation: History's first known periodic comet Halley (1P/Halley)   
      returns to the inner Solar System every 75 years or so. The famous   
      comet made its last appearance to the naked-eye in 1986. But dusty   
      debris from Comet Halley can be seen raining through planet Earth's   
      skies twice a year during two annual meteor showers, the Eta Aquarids   
      in May and the Orionids in October. Including meteors near the shower   
      maximum on October 21, this composite view compiles Orionid meteors   
      captured from years 2015 through 2022. About 47 bright meteors are   
      registered in the panoramic night skyscape. Against a starry background   
      extending along the Milky Way, the Orionid meteors all seem to radiate   
      from a point just north of Betelgeuse in the familiar constellation of   
      the Hunter. In the foreground are mountains in eastern Slovakia near   
      the city of Presov.
