Halley's Comet can be seen from Earth once every 75 years, but the meteor shower from the tail of the comet? You can catch a glimpse of that every year. This year, the best time to see the shower will be tonight through tomorrow morning. That's what Accuweather says anyway.

When comets fly through the solar system the stuff it leaves behind in it's tail enters the earths atmosphere. It bursts into flames lighting up the sky like little playful fireballs.

Best way to watch? The internet streamed broadcast.
During the broadcast, astronomers will discuss the shower and take questions from the viewers. Send them a tweet with #MeteordeMayo followed by your question. Why the stream? This year's shower will be hard to see, it's going up against a bright moon, city lights and your weary eyes. The online broadcast from Slooh.com is below!
