The famous winter meteor shower will sling bright shooting stars in mid-December, marking the brightest shower of the year. The shower peaks the night of Dec. 13-14, according to NASA meteor expert Bill Cooke. The Geminids are considered one of the best meteor showers every year because the individual meteors are bright, and they come fast and furious: This year, there will be more than 1 per minute, reaching 100 meteors per hour…”The best time to view the Geminids is around 2 a.m. local time,” Cooke said. “The moon will be first quarter, so it will set around midnight; there will be no moonlight to interfere with the Geminids this year.”

Tonight we celebrate the dark and winter solstice under the stars. Many cultures celebrate the movement of the sun. Astrological events like the solstice and equinox have been observed by human beings around the world since ancient times. The winter solstice has been considered a time that marks the rebirth of the sun as the days begin to grow longer following the solstice. Different traditions and rituals regard it is a time for hope, rebirth and celebrating the gifts of the year’s harvest. For some cultures the fermentation of beer and wine was concluded and butchering and breeding of livestock was also taking place around the winter solstice. Feasting and fires is a common way to celebrate the longest night of year. We invite you to come and spend the evening with us on the winter solstice. More details to follow.
