Please find the details of the Quadrantids Meteor Shower 2019
The Shooting Stars Show - 3th Jan 2019 to 4th Jan 2019
The Quadrantids are usually active between the end of December and the first week of January, and peak around January 3-4. Unlike other meteor showers that tend to stay at their peak for about two days, the peak period of the Quadrantids only lasts a few hours.
Our Panchgani campsite is situated on the hill station which offers excellent dark skies with minimal light and air pollution. It is one of the best places for these activities at this event:
1. Meteor shower observation with un-aided eye or naked eye
2. Observe planets, moon and night sky objects through GPS operated telescope
3. Guided star-gazing to understand constellations, mythologies of constellations
