  1. Multiple #fireballs falling on earth right now are very likely the "debris field" of #3iAtlas

    Earth is currently passing through the area of the plane of ecliptic that 3iAtlas passed through.

    #NASA of course is supporting all the other 50 #anomalies about that "#comet" by outright lying that "we usually get this many meteors around this time" - the fireballs are not part of any #meteorshower this is #Anomalous

  2. It’s the best night of the year to watch a meteor shower. The Geminids reach their peak tomorrow so tonight should should be pretty good.

    It’s too cloudy here in Ireland tonight but I did get out last night for about 20 minutes and saw quite a few. If you have clear skies, just look east. You’ll see Jupiter as the brightest thing in the sky, Gemini is just above it. All you need to do is look vaguely in that direction and let your eyes adjust.

  3. How to Watch the #Geminids #MeteorShower Reach Its Peak
    The moon will be about one-third full as one of the year’s last #meteor showers becomes most visible. It has been active since Dec. 4, and reaches its peak Saturday night into Sunday morning, or Dec. 13 to 14. It will then remain active until Dec. 17. Caused by debris from an asteroid, it is best viewed from the Northern Hemisphere, but observers south of the Equator can also witness the show.

  4. Here are the all night track-stacks from our 4 #GMN #MeteorCameras in Oxfordshire overnight 12th/13th August 2024. You can clearly see the #Perseids radiant on UK002F. We had 3,360 matched events across the #UKMeteorNetwork that night! #Perseids2024 #MeteorShower #Meteors

  5. The bright #Perseid #Meteor I captured at 02:01 on 13th Aug 2024 left behind a brief #ionizationCloud. Here's a short animation of the meteor and the 4 images that followed. Canon 1100D with 18-55mm lens, ISO1600 8sec f/3.5. #PerseidMeteorShower #Perseids2024 #MeteorShower

  6. Overnight 11th/12 Aug '24 I visually saw 56 #Perseids over 4 hours. I took over 3,000 photos with 2 cameras but only got 7 meteors on camera. Here are the best 4. Timestamps in the corner. 18-55mm lens, ISO-1600 8sec f/3.5 #Perseids2024 #MeteorShower #Meteors

  7. 3 #Perseid #Meteors captured on camera last night out of almost 3,000 photos! Taken from #Oxfordshire. Canon 1100D with 18-55mm lens, ISO-1600, 8sec f/3.5 #Perseids2024 #MeteorShower #PerseidMeteors

  8. Another very busy night on our #MeteorCameras last night in #Oxfordshire with #Perseids rates ramping up. We had 1,184 matched #meteors across the UK last night! The dotted lines are aircraft that were in the shot at the same time as a meteor #MeteorShower #Perseids2024

  9. Right now it's a stellar time for stargazers – while some of Australia is able to see the aurora australis, you might also be able to catch not one but two meteor showers!

    They're both set to have their peak tonight, and if you can get away from city lights you'll have the best chance of witnessing the show.
