Music and Meteors
Music and Meteors
Saturday, December 13, 2025
Every year the Earth passes through the dusty trail of the asteroid 3200 Phaethon, creating what we call the Geminids Meteor Shower. During this time, bits of debris from the asteroid enter our atmosphere and burn up, creating short, fiery streaks in the sky at a rate of about 50 meteors per hour all night long. On December 13th, join Observatory staff and astronomers 7:00 pm-Midnight to watch this spectacular event from a dark site, accompanied by live music for a magical experience. Classically trained musicians will perform astronomy-themed classical, pop and movie selections. All you’ll need is a chair or blanket, and your eyes and ears!
