2026 SKY CONTEXT · UTC
9 named showers are active on this date. Radiants are positioned from the IMO 2026 calendar.
The strongest and most reliable major shower of 2026, with a broad maximum and many bright meteors and fireballs.
A southern shower complex. The listed date is a radiant reference date rather than a well-defined maximum.
A fast minor shower that can still produce bright meteors. Its radiant overlaps a crowded December sky.
The northern Taurid branch has a broad plateau rather than a sharp peak and is known for slow, bright meteors.
A weak, fast northern source with a long activity interval and only a modest rate variation near its reference maximum.
A weak December shower whose radiant lies near other active sources, making optical separation difficult.
A weak medium-fast shower with activity extending from mid-November into early December.
A very slow and weak source included for continuity around historical activity dates. IMO reports no enhanced return prediction for 2026.
A very slow, periodic southern shower. No unusual activity is predicted for 2026.
Shower calendars and radiant positions provide astronomical context only. They do not identify the cause of an individual radio record. Visual ZHR is not a radio echo rate. Read the identification and limitations note .
Radiant positions are interpolated from the IMO 2026 Meteor Shower Calendar. The broad Antihelion Source, when shown, is a diffuse radiant region and not a true meteor shower.
