Slowly improving since 1960, the Geminids
have knocked the Perseids out of first 
place for overall quality. Bright (ave. 
magnitude of 2.7) and medium in speed, 
this shower comes from a dead comet 
discovered by the IRAS satillite. Most 
Geminid meteors are white, with few 
producing trails. This is one of 
the few showers which is good 
before midnight.
