Watch Up To 100 Meteors Per Hour In The First Meteor Shower Of 2020, Visible From Georgia
A new year, a new meteor shower in Georgia. In case you’re a budding astronomer, or perhaps just someone who enjoys watching one of the greatest shows of the sky, we have an experience not to be missed. Right now, the Quadrantids are lighting up the sky in Georgia and we have everything you need to know about the great show.
In case you haven’t heard, Quadrantids meteor shower is happening as we speak, and will continue on until Friday, January 10th, 2020.
It is often said that the Quadrantids can be seen better from the northern part of the hemisphere, but if you’re in an area in Georgia with dark skies then you will still be able to enjoy the show.
While the Quadrantids have the ability to be the strongest shower of the year, due to the poor weather that can take place in early January in Georgia, there are other showers that may be a bit brighter.
