Geminids 2025: India to see 100+ meteors/hr Dec 13-14

• The Geminids meteor shower peaks on December 13–14, 2025, offering up to 100 shooting stars per hour.
• Caused by Earth passing through debris from asteroid 3200 Phaethon, unlike most showers from comets.
• Best viewing in India is from midnight to 4 am, with peak activity around 2 am, when the constellation Gemini is high.
• Watch away from city lights in rural areas or hill stations for optimal visibility; no special equipment needed.
• A waning moon will create darker skies, making this year's Geminids particularly spectacular.

Why It Matters: This is a spectacular, easy-to-watch meteor shower for all.
