English

Encke and the Taurids are believed to be remnants of a much larger comet, which has disintegrated over the past 20,000 to 30,000 years, breaking into several pieces and releasing material by normal cometary activity or perhaps occasionally by close encounters with the tidal force of Earth or other planets (Whipple, 1940; Klačka, 1999).

恩克彗星和金牛座流星雨都被認為是另一顆出現在20,000至30,000年前的大彗星分裂之後的殘骸,散佈出的物質有些成為一般的彗星,有些則因為接近地球或其他行星的引力場受到吸引而成為流星(Whipple, 1940; Klačka, 1999)。
