Ok possibly can see at Bukit Brown in the next few nights....what you guys think, want to try SUnday night? Weather permitting, you may see shooting stars (meteors) tonight, 13 December 2013 and the next couple of nights and early mornings before dawn. These meteors apparently seem to radiate from the constellation Gemini and thats why it is named Geminid Meteor Shower. Due to the appearance of bright Moon, the best time to catch them is after midnight and especially the couple of hours just before dawn. But if the meteors are bright enough and the sky clear enough, you may still see them when the bright Moon is in the sky. So dont give up too easily. A friend of mine already spotted a couple of meteors during our sidewalk astronomy session on Monday (9 Dec) outside Toa Payoh Public Library. Go to a dark location away from city lights if possible - e.g. Changi Beach, Marina Barrage, nearby parks. Else, try roof top sky gardens to get away from glaring lights at ground level so you can dark adapt your eyes better and potentially see more meteors, especially the dimmer ones.
