Take a look Northeast in the early morning hours of Jan. 3rd to catch a glimpse of the year's first meteor shower.
The Quadrantids will peak in the morning on Jan. 3rd, with the best times to look from 1:00am to dawn. The rate can exceed 60 per hour, but unfortunately the waning gibbous moon will be putting out some unwanted glare. The radiant will be in the area south of Ursa Major, between Draco and Bootes. Be sure to dress warm if you decide to go out!
