Watch the Quadrantid Meteor Shower: A Sky Show of Bright Meteors.
Reading
The Quadrantid meteor shower will peak on Friday, offering a chance to see fireballs in the sky. The waning crescent moon means the sky will be dark, providing good visibility for viewers.
Most meteor showers are named after constellations, but the Quadrantids are named after a constellation that no longer exists. These meteors can appear as bright fireballs and may occur as frequently as 120 per hour during the peak.
The Quadrantids originate from debris left by the asteroid 2003 EH1. As this debris enters Earth's atmosphere, it burns up, creating the fiery tails we call shooting stars.
You don't need special equipment to see meteor showers, just a location away from city lights. The best time to watch is in the early morning hours before dawn when the moon is low.
Avoid looking at your phone to allow your eyes to adjust to the darkness and better spot shooting stars. The next meteor shower, the Lyrids, will peak in mid-April.
