☄️ Geminids · peak Dec 13 · ~150/hr · 🌒 moon 35%

Sunday, December 4, 1904 – December 20, 1904 All day

Peak: December 13, 1904, around 06:00 UTC — up to about 150 meteors an hour under a dark sky. The Moon will be 35% lit: some moonlight, which will hide the fainter meteors. Meteors seem to come from Gemini; the debris is from asteroid 3200 Phaethon. The year's richest shower, with many bright meteors, visible from both hemispheres. Peak times and rates: the International Meteor Organization's working list.
