The very last major meteor shower of this year will peak on the night of December 13-14th! This is one of the most consistent annual meteor showers of the year producing more than 60 meteors - including fireballs - per hour at its peak. The Geminids are not to be missed!

If you are going to watch a meteor shower, here is my advice - as I've chosen the wrong viewing partner in the recent past. I actually enjoy watching it by myself as I don't know anyone who will appreciate even having been able to see one meteor all night. It is a wonderous and beautiful act of the cosmos and I love every second of it, so choose your veiwing partner carefully :)

And for all my Ismaili brothers and sisters, Khushiali Mubarak and what a perfect time for the sky to deliver us a few cosmic gifts to celebrate!
