Gemenid Meteor Shower

Thursday, December 6, 2012

Geminids Meteor Shower will be Visible Dec. 13-15

The Geminids meteor shower will start Dec. 13 and be visible through Dec 15. More than 50 meteors per hour should or almost a meteor a minute will be visible.

As you hang holiday lights and light the candles, cast your gaze upon the universe's natural fireworks, as well.  The Geminid Meteor Shower is expected to begin on Dec. 13. Be sure to schedule a night this season to bundle up, lay out some blankets and enjoy the light show in the sky.  Don't have access to a telescope? The Lehigh Valley Amateur Astronomical Society (LVAAS) invites you and your family to attend any monthly public star party. Hear a Night Sky Network talk about NASA missions and space science topics. See a planetarium show and look through observatory telescopes at the moon, planets and deep sky objects (weather permitting). All members of the general public are invited to LVAAS Star Party Events!!  It's a great way to learn…
