As this object orbits the sun, it leaves a trail of comet crumbs in its wake. In some years, when Jupiter&#8217;s orbit brings it close to the comet&#8217;s trail, the gas giant&#8217;s gravity nudges the comet particle stream toward Earth, so more meteors are visible to observers here. Astronomers call this an &#8220;outburst.&#8221; That isn&#8217;t expected to happen this year, but the latest predictions suggest that an outburst will happen in 2019, NASA meteor expert Bill Cooke told Space.com.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zatista.com\/product\/details\/45015\/Galaxy\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/zatista-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/products\/10803_m5u694k7b1qc28ebljko0t6ep2_SY6AJXR1569Dwu89_1_800x800.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"608\" \/><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Galaxy by Eva Hoffmann Oil on Canvas, 24 x 24 $2100<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The best viewing results will happen in the early morning hours from any dark location.
