If you can find a clear sky, Orion will be at its highest in the south around 8 p.m. The Aldebaran-Jupiter-Pleiades triangle will form a perfect right triangle throughout the week and next. It's also a great time to observe the zodiacal light. ow.ly/i3ei50V0xtQ

Don't Let the Bright Moon Ruin Your Geminids Strategies for making the most of this week's Moon-soaked Geminid meteor shower.

Ever the optimist, S&T Contributing Editor Bob King advises not to let tonight’s Moon deter you from trying see some meteors. The Geminids are known for bright fireballs — you might catch some, if you spend some time outside tonight looking up.
