hey! have you watched Geminids meteor shower's peak last night? well i live in Indonesia. it might be different from any countries but it said that the peak was on december, 12-13. though the sky wasn't clear enough(since Indonesia is in rain season now), i was able to saw many shooting stars that were really beautiful! many of them had blue color and i was able to see a red one. how about you guys? did you watch them?

I didn't even know this was going on! I wonder if the meteors were able to be viewed in America. Kinda sad I missed it, but probably would've missed it anyways since you probably have to stay up really late to see any stars.

i didn't sleep until morning since i watched it on the beach. i think there are meteor showers who were only able to be seen in America and the countries near there. but maybe this geminids can be seen too since its peak on 12-13 december. :)

I heard the news but because our weather in our area is not good, we were not able to watch it. Have you taken some pictures?

For some reason, even if this is a yearly occurrence, I still haven't seen it in person. It's either because of an unideal weather or I just totally forgot to look during those times that the meteor shower will be visible. I've seen pictures of it and it is really an awesome sight. But I think it's still better if I had personally seen them.

I know about that meteor shower but I didn't watch it... Only I peek outside my house but then I get back inside... I will look like a fool if I just stand outside my house while waiting for the shower...(if ever happens my neighbor peek outside their window and see me staring up).... And there's a 4 story building beside our house and it blocks I think the southern side of the sky....
