News Tidbits: If the weather forecast hold true, Wawaites may not be able to see the Geminid’s tonight during their peak. If skies clear though, debris from “rock comet” 3200 Phaethon will fly out of the constellation Gemini, in what is expected to be the best meteor display of 2020. Look almost due east and to the right of Orion’s shoulder to see them between 10 pm Sunday night and 5 am Monday morning.
