So if anybody is interested, tomorrow morning between 4:30 AM and sunrise you'll be able to see the Geminid meteors. I think I'll get up and see if I can take a few pictures. If you go to www.spaceweather.com, just look for the article called "Hour of the Geminids" (it should be the top one, unless they add something) to find out where to look and stuff. If I get some good pictures I'll post them.

Was this made yesterday or today on the east coast. I wanted to see one of these a few years ago but my father never awoke me.

I'm up and watching! Unfortunately I'm in the city, so there is a lot of light pollution, and the moon is pretty bright too. >.< I can see Orion and a few other select stars, but not a really nice range... well, I hope I can catch something.♪~
Always Happy! Smile! Hello!
I like delicious things
I shoot eye beams at the things I hate and make them explode! (Yay!)
So Happy! Smile! Hello! It's a picnic every day
There's lots of happiness in my pocket
So let's play forever~Comment

What a good night for me to be out in the country again. I'll totally watch.

Well, I didn't see as many meteors as I expected, but the moon also didn't go down until like 5:00. I was out for about an hour (and my toes were so numb
) and I saw 10. I'm sure I would have seen a lot more, but we have a lot of light pollution in the southeast (I live northwest of Philly) which is where the meteors were supposed to be be most heavily concentrated.
Sorry guys, no pictures... my camera sucks and hardly lets in enough light to get an extremely blurry picture of the moon because it's retarded and the manual focus doesn't work.Comment

Your kidding me right??? I missed it? why didn't anyone comment before last night ended!! ugh anyone know when the next one is?Comment

Probably like 30 years or something. I wanted to see it to.-In all seriousness, I dont give a damn-Comment

Y'all really didn't miss anything. At least, from where I was. I stood outside for a total of about ten minutes and only saw four. It wasn't worth my time to crane my neck up for much longer.

Ah! I saw a meteor...but it was on Friday...but damn, that was the most awesome meteor I had ever seen. It didnt even have a tail...wait..those are comets. Whatever. It might have been a personal aircraft crashing behind the mountains. But I didnt hear anything about any plane crashes...so it must have been a meteor.
I was driving with a friend when I saw it.
Me: "Whoa!! A shooting star!"
Friend: "Wha? Where?!"
Me: "You didnt see it? Oh man, it was the most amazing shooting star ever."
Friend:
Me: "It didnt even have a tail. Maybe it was an airplane...crashing"
Friend: "And I missed it."
Me: "Ha, yeah, you did. That sucks."Comment
