TLDR

The Geminids meteor shower, which peaks during mid-December each year, is considered one of the best and most reliable annual meteor showers. Originating from the asteroid 3200 Phaethon, the Geminids are known for their bright, fast, and yellow meteors. Best viewed under dark skies during the night and predawn hours, this shower offers a great opportunity for skywatchers, especially for young viewers. To maximize your viewing experience, find a location away from city lights, dress warmly, and be patient as the show lasts until dawn.
