A meteor shower is a celestial event in which a number of meteors are observed to radiate from one point in the night sky.The amateur astronomers and other cool stuff like that Stargazers watching the sky tonight.
The Geminids meteor shower of the year is at its peak tonight, and we have some tips to help you make the most of it. The Geminids meteor shower is one that is itself derived from the asteroid 3200 Phaeton. He called for its relatively slow meteors, and as one of the few showers that do not come from a comet.
The Geminids were observed for the past 150 years, making it look much younger than the Perseids shower or Leonids. Today's edition of the Geminid shower is in competition with a full moon 89%, so this year will not give us full visibility. But your timing can give you the best possible chance. The two will be this evening (13th December) and tomorrow will be the best nights to see Gemenid, with the best of two tonight.
You can watch the show at any time between 10:00 local time and sunrise, but for most of us (the United States and North and South America), the best time to take out the binoculars approximately 4 clock hours local time.
You can confirm the peak hours for your specific area of NASA Fluxtimator tool, just be sure to adjust menus accordingly. Meteors near the constellation Gemini is out. Android users can use Google Sky Map, easy to find Gemini, but it is not necessary, research the zero point is no longer necessary with a meteor shower as the sun.
