The Astronomical Society of Rowan County

Don’t forget the Draconid Meteor Shower is expected to peak today Saturday, October 8, 2011 at 1900 UTC/GMT! Some resources are estimating as many as a thousand meteors per hour, unfortunately the Moon will hinder observations to a large degree and light pollution won’t help either. However, that being said you should at least step out after sunset and see what you can see, you just never know! For more information please see: www.SpaceWeather.com
