忘记给大家汇报了。
今年的狮子座流星雨比较适合亚洲地区。
我和Montreal 天文馆联系了一下。他们推荐的是今年的双子座流星雨。适合北美地区(晚上11点就可以)而且今年预计比较强烈。
如果到时候天气好一定要去看,最好是几台车多些朋友一起,有说有聊
This year is favorable for the Geminids, the year’s grand finale. As a general rule, it’s either the Geminids or the August Perseids that give us the most prolific meteor display of the year. Unlike many meteor showers, you can start watching for the Geminids around 9:00 to 10:00 p.m., although this shower tends to gain strength after midnight and to climax at roughly 2:00 in the morning. With maximums commonly reaching 50 meteors per hour, this is a glorious time of year to sprawl out on your reclining lawn chair and to take in the show. Just be sure to bring along warm clothing, blankets or sleeping bags, and a thermos with a warm beverage. With an exceedingly thin waning crescent moon to rise at or shortly before dawn, the stage is set for a dark sky and a grand Geminid display. The best viewing of these often bright, medium-speed meteors should be from late night December 13 till dawn December 14. |
