In Caelis

O fellow Classicists -

While on the topic of the skies and stars, for those of you who have an interest in astronomy, like myself, or simply enjoy shiny streaks of light through the sky, please note that the Geminid meteor shower is tonight!

For those on the East Coast, it peaks at 12:10am (this is Sunday night into Monday morning) with rates expected of 140+ meteors per hour. In astronomical terms, this is an excellent meteor shower. Make sure you look up tonight!
