Mark your calendars and set your alarms because the Geminid meteor shower is upon us, expecting to peak during the late evening of Dec. 13 into the early morning on Dec. 14 at 2 a.m. local time.
According toNASA, the Geminids are recognized as the “best and most reliable annual meteor showers.” You can anticipate a starry night because they often exhibit 50 or more meteors per hour near their peak.

No, it’s another meteor shower!The Draconid meteor shower occurs every October, but this year’s shooting-star spectacle is expected to peak Oct. 8 during early evening and nightfall. Stargazers might even be able to witness a few showers the nights leading up to the main event starting Oct. 6.This year, viewers are in luck because the thin, waxing crescent moon is expected to set before nightfall, so conditions will be ideal to watch the starry display; as theAmerican Meteor Society explained, “These meteors are best seen just as soon as it becomes dark.

It’s meteor shower hour!
The Leonid meteor shower is expected to peak late night on Nov. 16 and Nov. 17 early morning, but will remain active through Nov. 30.
Stargazers can expect a spectacular scene of shooting stars because the Leonids are historically known for their meteor storms rather than showers which can produce at least 1,000 meteors per hour.

Although a storm spectacle is unlikely to be in effect this year, star searchers can still expect to witness approximately 15 meteors per hour that shoot as fast as 44 miles per second.

Another starry, starry night is upon us!
This year, the annual Taurid meteor shower is expected to peak during the late evening of Nov. 4 and last through the early morning of Nov. 5, producing spectacular streams of stars in the sky.
Although the display is considered a minor meteor shower (lacking a relatively strong peak), they are known to have “staying power, rambling along steadily for weeks and months in Northern Hemisphere autumn,” according toEarthSky.
