Moderators dtel Posted December 13, 2009 Moderators Share Posted December 13, 2009 Have been reading about it but it's going to be cloudy here, no chance to see anything. I was out for the Leonid meteor showers but it was kind of light this year, they say, I think it was India or somewhere on the other side of the earth had the best view this year.

Romak Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Tonight will be just as good. During the next week, rates increase until a peak of 50-80 meteors per hour is attained on the night of December 13/14. The last Geminids are seen on December 18, when an observer might see a rate of one every hour or so. http://www.meteorshowersonline.com/geminids.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted December 14, 2009 Moderators Share Posted December 14, 2009 9 degrees and dropping [] They would be tough to see when your shivering and about to freeze your important parts off. [:^)] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
