Leonids Meteor Shower Viewing

OVERVIEW

According to NASA: “This year’s Leonid meteor shower peaks on Tuesday, Nov. 17th. If forecasters are correct, the shower should produce a mild but pretty sprinkling of meteors over North America followed by a more intense outburst over Asia. The phase of the Moon will be new, setting the stage for what could be one of the best Leonid showers in years.”

Let’s watch the meteor shower in Lambeth Ampitheater!

Meet at 11pm in the Lambeth Ampitheater (NOTE: NOT the one on grounds… the one by Lambeth!) and watch the meteor shower. It’s supposed to be really good this year, with 20-30 meteors per hour.

I will provide hot chocolate (bring your own mug!)

The meteor shower peaks around 4am. I am not staying up til 4am. But I mean you can stay out as long as you want…. 🙂

You can park at Lambeth after 5pm, as long as you move your car before morning.

NOTE: If it is going to be cloudy, I will cancel this trip because we won’t be able to see anything.

BRING: Lots of warm clothing! If it’s a clear night, it means it will be COLD. Bring a blanket, and maybe a towel to sit on. Bring your own mug for hot chocolate.
