Geminids Meteor Shower: A Spectacular Mid-December Sky Event
Catch a glimpse of the renowned Geminids during the late hours of December 13 and into the pre-dawn stages of the succeeding day. This annual meteor shower, a highlight in mid-December, takes its name from the Gemini constellation, being the apparent origin of its shooting stars. With fireballs shooting out from this point in the sky at an impressive speed of 35 kilometres per second, the Geminids meteor shower promises a breathtaking spectacle for stargazers.
