Join us on our Observation Deck and be dazzled as we make our annual trip through the Geminids Meteor Shower. The Geminids, named for the constellation where the shower appears to originate, is one of the best meteor showers to catch this year. The source of the shower is Asteroid 3200 Phaethon, a small asteroid about 3.17 miles (5.10 kilometers) across. 

Bring warm clothing or optional blankets, chairs or sleeping bags. 

This event is weather permitting. In the event of rain, fog or cloud cover, the event will be cancelled, and tickets will be refunded upon request.
