Когда Ursid Meteor Shower?

The Ursid Meteor Shower peaks on the night of December 22, close to the winter solstice, with 5-10 meteors per hour on a typical year. The radiant is in Ursa Minor near Polaris, making it a northern-hemisphere shower. The parent is Comet 8P/Tuttle. Ursids often go overlooked during the busy holiday period, but dark, clear winter nights still reward patient observers.
