Did anyone watch the meteor shower last night? It was beautiful!?

The Geminid meteor shower peak has past us now but it is not over yet! You can still see some best if you get away from the city lights to a darker sky location. If you stay in the city you will only be able to see the bigger and brighter ones. Meteor showers last for days and when the experts talk about the expected peak that doesnt mean that it is done and over. Go out and look up. Be patient. They are usually measured in meteors per hour and this one is expected to be pretty active.

This is a calendar for all of the predicted meteor showers for the whole year. It is the International Meteor Organization. Enjoy.
