The Geminid’s peak tonight! The meteor shower starts around 9pm (once the constellation of Gemini rises) and comes to us straight from asteroid 3200 Phaethon (instead of a comet!).
Those living under very dark skies can expect to see 100 meteors per hour! City dwellers can expect to see 1 per minute.
Bundle up and enjoy the year’s best streaming outdoor show!
