The Geminid Meteor Shower will be able to be seen around midnight EST, by looking up towards the constellation of Gemini on the 13th and 14th of this month. It'll be cold for us east coast folks so bundle up and take something hot to drink.
If you don't know what the constellation Gemini looks like, look up at the sky and see if you can pick out this grouping of stars.
Oops, wrong one. That's the Playboy Barbi twins. Let me try again.
Wrong twins again, damnit! Screw it. Just watch this video.
