How to catch the Quadrantids, the first meteor shower of 2025
The Quadrantid meteor shower will be the year’s first chance to see fireballs in the sky. A waning crescent moon means good visibility under clear and dark conditions. These meteors usually don’t have long trains, but the heads may appear as bright fireballs. NASA says Friday’s peak may reveal as many as 120 meteors per hour. The source of the Quadrantids is debris from the asteroid 2003 EH1. The next meteor shower, the Lyrids, will peak in mid-April. You don’t need special equipment to catch meteor showers.
