"Get ready for the spectacular meteor shower lighting up US skies this week"

The peak of the Geminid meteor shower, known for producing up to 120 shooting stars per hour, will be visible on Wednesday night through Thursday morning. To get the best view, find a location far from city lights and bundle up as temperatures will be in the 20s. The moon will be almost new, allowing for a better view of the bright and colorful fireballs.
