December φ-Cassiopeid meteor shower 2021
Visible In India? :
The December φ-Cassiopeid meteor shower will be active from 1 December to 8 December, producing its peak rate of meteors around 6 December.
Over this period, there will be a chance of seeing December φ-Cassiopeid meteors whenever the shower’s radiant point – in the constellation Andromeda – is above the horizon, with the number of visible meteors increasing the higher the radiant point is in the sky.
The shower is expected to reach peak activity at around 11:00 IST on 6 December 2021, and so the best displays might be seen before the radiant sets on 6 December and after dusk on 6 December.
