It was a spectacular show on the biggest screen imaginable. And you didn't have to buy a ticket to see it. All you had to do was look up to the sky.
The Orionid meteor shower, which occurs every October, was at peak visibility from midnight until dawn on Sunday. With the skies clear, the meteors were visible to some residents in the area.
An NBC10 viewer sent in this picture of a bright meteor spotted over Ardmore, Pa.
NBC10 Meteorologist Dave Warren said that looking towards the southeast was your best bet to catch a glimpse. The meteors appeared, about 10 to 15 per hour, in the area near the constellation Orion and also near Sirius, the brightest star in the sky.
