Spent a exclusive night in the pristine jungle of Ranthambore and watch the meteor showers from the observatory . experience a night full of celestial wonders like nebuale ,galaxies, star clusters. Meteor showers occur when the Earth passes through debris left behind from comets and asteroids, which is why they occur at around the same time each year. The GEMINIDS originate from the ASTEROID PHAETHON 3200, which orbits the sun about every 1.5 years. This year’s shower will peak on the night of DECEMBER 14. Observers are usually able to see about 120 meteors per hour in a clear, dark sky, though on very rare occasions, the GEMINIDS can surprise viewers with as many as 100 meteors in an hour. For the best stargazing, find a dark area between moonset and sunrise. Lie flat on your back with your feet facing east and look up at the sky, NASA recommends.
