Scientists studied that remaining dust from the asteroid named 2003 EH1 forms these meteors. It is one of the
chances when people will get excited about astronomy. The best you can do to watch the meteor is to lay down on the ground and stare up at the sky for the astronomy effects. Also, read about huge water reserves just below Mars’ surface.

“We managed to spot 108 Geminid meteors including two fireballs. As the sky is clearer today we expect to spot many more. If the skies are clear throughout the night one can witness the shower all night,” said ASP president Dr Chong Hon Yew.

However. the shower appeared in many parts of the world and thanks to the Bemidji Police Officer who recorded the video with the help of the car dash cam. The video is simply awesome and stunning. Have a look.
