According to the International Meteor Organization (IMO), the Quadrantids will crescendo just after 3 a.m. Eastern Standard Time on January 4. (To give your eyes time to adjust, head outdoors about half an hour before you begin scouring.) Not the most convenient of times, but chances are you won’t be jostling for viewing space—and the especially dark, moonless skies will only make the show more spectacular, reports Bruce McClure at EarthSky.
So brew some coffee, bundle up and get comfy somewhere well away from city lights. For those in especially dim parts of the Northern Hemisphere, more than 100 meteors might shimmer through the skies every hour. No promises, though: The Quadrantids can be as elusive as their origins.
