Look out for the weather news and be alert if you are a space geek! Since it is the month of December, it’s that time of the year when not only the city but the skies too are filled with cheer and twinkling lights. The Geminids meteor shower will adorn in the skies, probably in the second week of the month.

Observers will be able to view about 120 meteors every minute. These meteors will be moving at speeds of 125, 500 kmph. To catch the best glimpse of the Geminids that are due to rain over the skies of Australia, it is advisable that you stay away from all sources of light as much as possible. If you are on at Citadines on Bourke Melbourne or the likes of other family hotels in Melbourne, opt for an overnight camp for 1 day. This is an experience that is simply unmissable. Look for the constellation Gemini while on your trip as the showers appear to be from this very star pattern.
