B. replied: "There are many meteor showers every year. Meteor showers can occur several days prior and several days after their projected peak time. Times on this site are Universal times. Think about the rotation of the earth. As the Earth spins, it moves into the path of the dust in space so you want to look mostly towards the east and near the constellation that the shower is named for. The darker the sky in your viewing location, then the more you can see of even the fainter meteors. If you are in a light polluted area, you will only be able to see the biggest and most bright meteors. They are best to watch if you have a friend with you. This is the 2009 calendar of meteor showers from the International Meteor Organization. When 2010 gets here, change the date on this link to 2010 and you should see the calendar for all of next year too. (The last time I checked, they hadn't quite finished building the 2010 one yet.) Their home page can tell you how to get the very most out of your meteor shower viewing experience. "

TJ replied: "The next meteor shower is the Leonids on November 17-18. The shower will peak in the predawn hours of November 17. The Moon will be just past new, so it won't interfere with the shower. Experts predict that this will be a good year for the Leonids. November----Leonids-----November 17-18 The Leonids are best known for their 33-year peaks, during which 100s of meteors per hour can be observed. The last of these peaks occured in 2001. December ---Geminids----December 13-14 The most reliable meteor shower of the year, the Geminids are characterized by their multi-colored display--65% being white, 26% yellow, and the remaining 9% blue, red and green.
