"Get Ready for a Spectacular Show: Geminid Meteor Shower to Reach 120 Meteors per Hour!"

The Geminid meteor shower is set to reach its peak during the early morning hours of December 14, with up to 120 meteors per hour possible. This year's timing is ideal for viewing as the new moon will prevent moonlight from obscuring the meteors. The Geminids are unique as they originate from the trail of an asteroid called 3200 Phaethon. To observe the shower, find a dark location and allow your eyes to adjust for at least 30 minutes. The radiant point will be at its highest point in the sky around 2 a.m., but meteors can be visible throughout the sky.
