Красота! К нам прилетели Геминиды – самый классный поток метеоров

NASA не дремлет и предлагает всем присоединиться к наблюдению за Геминидами – одним из самых ярких метеорных потоков, которые в декабре с Земли видно невооруженным глазом. 

На территории России красоту можно будет наблюдать, начиная с ночи с 14 на 15 декабря. В Инстаграме счастливые очевидцы уже выкладывают фотографии с тэгами #geminids. Мы сделали подборку самых захватывающих дух картинок. Красота – страшная сила, а мир все-таки удивительное место! 

 

@therealjp took this photo of the #geminids #meteorshower over the resort last night ☄ Look close at the center of the frame above Great Western to spot the meteor. Tonight is the peak of the shower!

Consider it the sky’s December present: The Geminids meteor shower! Peaking at 120 meteors per hour, it’s known as the “King of All Meteor Showers.” Geminids are bright and can appear in various colors depending on the gas. They’re also easy to spot because they move at about 22 miles per second, which is considered slow for a meteor. Overnight tonight and overnight Monday are the best times to catch it. For the best view, get away from artificial lights…and the clouds…and find an open space because the meteors can come from all angles. Thanks to #abc7eyewitness @arunsharma24 for this great sky shot!

Here’s a cool shot from my trip out to Joshua Tree last night. I went out a day early to photograph the Geminids meteor shower, since there was rain in the forecast for tonight. In this 5 minute exposure another jeep drove by behind the FJ to give a great lighting effect. If you’re in an area where the sky is clear tonight, go outside and look to the heavens. It’s the most active meteor shower of the year, so even if you’re in a light-polluted area, you still may see some meteors. #joshuatree #geminids #startrails #nightphotography #astrophotography #fjcruiser

Meteor shower live! ‘The Geminids’☄ Ligger i detta nu och iakttar det vackra skådespel som utspelar sig på himlavalvet. Stjärnfallet inatt är det största på hela året och man kan se upp till flera stjärnfall i minuten! Man tar sällan vara på nuets skönhet då fokus oftast ligger på det som komma skall och alla måsten som bär dit. Därför blir stunder som denna, då man kan ta ett steg tillbaka och låta sig förtrollas och häpna åt den magi vi har omkring oss dagligen, så fantastiska ✨ #YodaWhereAreYou #MayTheForceBeWithYou #MeteorShower #Geminids #Space #StarWars #Tyngre #Tillskottsbolaget #bodybuilding #fitness #minresaräknas #AldrigVila #MURDERIT #WORKFNHARDER #FlagNorFail #WorkEthicIsNotDead

The #geminids are a meteor shower viewable from anywhere in the world, and they start tonight! To find out the best time/place to spot them, check out the link in my bio – I wrote up a guide for @gizmodoaustralia that includes how to best shoot a time lapse! #space #science #meteor #meteorshower

Tonight is the night to go out and look up. If you could choose to see only one meteor shower, this is the one, my personal favorite: #Geminids ☄ Peaks at 2:00 am and visible both north and south hemisphere. Tonight we have a waning crescent and the sky is pretty clear. Do yourself a favor and look up for ten minutes even right now.

・ Not sure but it could be one of Geminid Meteor Shower. Taken a week ago. #geminids ・ 月の沙漠のふたりの旅路、照らすはふたご座流星群。なんつってｗ ・ 改めてチェックしたら写ってたやつで、角度的に#ふたご座流星群 かどうかは微妙かも。ちょうど左上に#ふたご座 がいます。広角なのであまり伝わりませんが、オリオンのサイズと比較すると流星の大きさが分かりますね。 さてふたご座流星群は今晩が極大で月もなく見頃の筈なんですが、俺の住んでる所では満天の雲！残念！

Happening right now. Will be at its peak after midnight but you can catch some now. New moon was just a couple days ago, you couldn’t ask for a more perfect sky to view the shower. It’s one of the best showers of the year but normally a tough one to catch because it’s mid-December and cold af, but this December has been mild! So get yo’ ass outside to catch a glimpse. I was going to say a few but with this shower you should see a bunch.and they’re usually colorful, too! #geminids #meteorshower
