Take Your Ass Outside Tonight and Watch The Geminid's Meteor Shower Peak!
POLL: Do You Plan on Watching The Geminid's Peak?
 YES!
 ...No
 Would Love To See Them But Cant Due To Reasons
 Blank (View Results) 



THE GEMINID METEOR SHOWER IS UNDERWAY: International observers are counting as many as 50 meteors per hour as Earth plunges into a stream of debris from rock comet 3200 Phaethon. Rates could double, or more, when the shower peaks on Dec. 13th and 14th. The best time to look is during the dark hours before dawn on Thursday and Friday

There is also another new meteor shower happening too!

Put on some layers to keep warm
Make some Cocoa, Make some Coffee... drink some whiskey... whatever you want to stay warm...

But go out tonight (or right now if its dark out) and witness a spectacle!

The Peak of this shower is tonight!!

And its gonna be a show!!

Last night was pretty impressive!

I'm excited to see what tonight brings! Should be way better!

Look North to East... You should see em whiz through the sky

Anytime after dark... as the night drags on... they should increase.

Leave the dumb phone, the TV the computer and watch the fireballs stream across the sky...

Make some wishes while you are at it...

I know I got half a dozen i'm gonna mumble tonight!

Happy Geminid's Everyone!

Plan to after the hockey game - hopefully it will still be clear here - cleared up nicely after the rain last night, so I hope so.

Broke out my LL Bean wool coat and snow boots so I should be set here in Georgia, lol.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 907170


last night i saw my first one at 6:45pm (est)

check shortly after dark your time

my rule of thumb is usually 10pm-2am

but anytime after dark has a chance of seeing them

If you cant do the later viewings... make sure you try 8pm or 9 pm

i just looked out and i didnt see em yet... so if you check right after dark and dont see em... don't get dishearted... if its clear out... you will see em!

happy hunting!
