Today:
The Geminid Meteor shower reaches its peak tonight. This is the year’s most prolific displays of meteors, producing over 100 shooting stars per hour. The Twins of Gemini are one third of the way up by 9 o’clock, which means the meteors are active all night long. And there will be little interference from the Moon, which is now past its last quarter.
