May i know your location?
Hi:
In the North , woodlands singapore
Hi. I stay in woodlands too.
So is it possible to view the Geminids with our bare eyes? Any suggetions as to which part of woodlands where I might be ble to catch them?
Just get down walk around and find a spot with some view of the unobstructed sky. I have some success before with Gems years ago in downstair HDB block facing school field ( no light from there)...watch out for dripping clothing etc, and benches in nearby park Tekong Mandai - outdoor basket ball court... perhaps near sport stadium , open fields behind 888.. etc etc. Yes you can see meteors with naked eye, instrumentation not needed. For very clear sky you can see short meteors radiating from Gemini itself..else look away but keep Castor Pollux with edge of your Field of View. Its cloudy right now...
ok, thanks for the details.
but yes it's very cloudy tonight.
hello! while surfin for geminids, happened to find this blog! in woodlands too. super cloudy..
For some reason, I have been getting "dotted" still image meteor trails when capturing with my Watec 902H. Any suggestions on why that is, and how to correct it?
Lots of Geminids this year!
Thanks.
