Just to let everyone know the annual geminid meteor shower is underway.
Began on the 4th and is predicted to peak on the 13th this month ( so thursday ). Was out watching the stars before with a friend and it was roughly 15 min wait between meteors but they were absolute rippers when they showed themselves with some superb smoke trails burning off them. I highly recommend taking some time this week to turn your f*cking tv off and watch the universe do its thing.
