Event Details

Light Up the Night With Wonder

Under the vast winter sky, the Geminids will dazzle with their brilliant streaks of light, a celestial gift from asteroid 3200 Phaethon. As Earth sails through trails of cosmic dust, these meteoroids burn up in our atmosphere, painting the heavens with glowing magic.

Bundle up, bring a blanket, and let the Geminids take center stage—no telescopes needed! With its radiant glow and breathtaking beauty, this meteor shower promises a night of celestial splendor you’ll never forget.
