   If your a space junkie, a light show is scheduled for late tonight in the predawn hours.  The Orionid meteor shower wil reach it peak early Thursday and Friday, but tonight will be the best viewing as more clouds are expected by sunrise Friday. 
   The Orionids are debris from Haley's comet which the earth is passing through presently.   You may see around 12 meteors per hour.  Look in the southeast sky, as they will originate out of the constellation of Orion.
