Geminid Meteory shower (3)

1 Name: Sekemiya : 2012-12-12 19:14 ID:zzvI8F9+ [Del]

This week is a great chance to watch a great meteor shower: the Geminids, so named because they appear to shoot away from the constellation of Gemini. This is a really reliable shower, generally putting out as many as 100 meteors per hour! It peaks on the evening to morning of Dec. 13/14, but usually has a decent showing for a couple of days before and after the peak.

My toes nearly froze off, but I saw upwards of 20 shooting stars, so it was completely worth it!
