The Virginids are a meteor shower. There are many major and minor meteor shower streams that occur during the Virginid Complex,[1] including the Alpha Virginids, Gamma Virginids,[2][3][4][5] Eta Virginids, Theta Virginids, Iota Virginids,[6] Lambda Virginids,[7] Mu Virginids,[8] Pi Virginids, and Psi Virginids,[9] and March Virginids,[10][11] emanating mostly from the constellation Virgo between February and May.[1] Collectively, the shower normally lasts from late January to mid-April[12] and into early May,[1] peaking in March and April,[1][12] with one to two meteors per hour on average.[12] The main radiant shifts southeastwards from central Leo in late January to central Virgo near Spica in mid-May.[13]
