What's Up: December 2021 Skywatching Tips from NASA

Ғылым және технология

What are some skywatching highlights in December 2021?
See three planets after sunset, but say goodbye to Venus as the "Evening Star" at the end of the month. Then have a hunt for newly discovered Comet Leonard in the early morning through mid-month. Finally, get up early on Dec. 14 to watch for Geminid meteors after local moonset, around 2 a.m.
Additional information about topics covered in this episode of What's Up, along with still images from the video, and the video transcript, are available at solarsystem.nasa.gov/whats-up....
Also, here's the new "Watch the Skies" blog about the upcoming Geminid meteors: go.nasa.gov/3lSJXVp

    Hey!! Its 6:10 here and we saw a huge amount of debris just now!!! It went across the entire sky moving very very slow like a space shuttle falling to earth but from one end of my zenith the the horizon. Anyways just wanted to put that out there just incase someone else saw it.
