The annual Leonid meteor shower peaks on Nov. 17, 2024, but a bright moon just two days past full will make viewing this year's Leonids difficult.

Leonid meteors are a few years away from producing a storm that dazzles viewers once every 33 years, but they could still put on a show this weekend.

The event produces some of the year’s fastest meteors, although the nearly full moon may make them challenging to spot.
