Orionid Meteor Shower October 2026: Here's the peak date and best time to watch

On October 21 and 22, 2023, the Orionid meteor shower will be visible in Indonesia. People can expect to see shooting stars without any tools and without city lights. The best viewing time will be after the Moon sets around 2:30 a.m. While in cities like Jakarta and Makassar, finding a dark place will enhance visibility. Adjusting to darkness for 30 minutes will help catch more meteors in the sky.
