And you thought Tutubi just wanted to explore this earth and not beyond? Tutubi has has always been a stargazer and frustrated space explorer. He can still identify major constellations in the sky on a clear night but this time he's intent on catching the ongoing passing of the Quandrantid meteors.
(this is just an FYI post, no pictures of meteor showers here as Tutubi's not equipped for such phenomenon. He can only used his still unused 10x binoculars for stargazing and meteor showers like this one)
Quandrantid meteor is active from January 1 to 7.
According to the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), skywatchers can train their eyes on the northeastern skies south of the Big Dipper (Big Dipper is an easy to spot seven stars shaped like a kite with tail or a laddle and part of the constellation Ursa Major) and expect about 40 meteors per hour to pass by.
Too many falling stars on a single night? Have many wishes? :P
