☄️ Geminids · peak Dec 15 · ~150/hr · 🌓 moon 56%

Wednesday, December 4, 2075 – December 20, 2075 All day

Peak: December 15, 2075, around 03:00 UTC — up to about 150 meteors an hour under a dark sky. The Moon will be 56% 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.
