The Leonids meteor shower, originating from the constellation Leo, will be visible on the night of November 17 through to the early hours of November 18.

Stargazers are going to be downhearted: the National Astronomical Research Institute of Thailand (NARIT) took to Facebook to say that the Leonids meteor shower from Wednesday night to dawn on Thursday will unfortunately not be visible because it will be disturbed or obscured by the moonlight.
