Don't miss the peak of the Geminids Meteor Shower! A meteor shower is a moment when the Earth passes through debris of asteroids or comets, and that creates more shooting stars than usual.
The Geminids are coming!
At Blue Mountains Stargazing, the Geminids are the astronomical end-of-year celebration. The biggest meteor shower of the year can feature up to 150 shooting stars per hour in the best conditions! With the conditions this year, in particular with the Moon's position, expect about 50 shooting stars visible per hour. That's about one a minute, still something to stay up for!
We will run a special celebratory stargazing tour for the peak of the Geminids on Friday 13 December 2024, 8:30pm-10:00pm.
