Stargazers can expect the Quadrantid meteor shower to peak around January 3-4, 2025, with the potential for up to 120 meteors visible each hour.
The Quadrantids are considered one of the strongest meteor showers of the year, requiring no special equipment for viewing, just patience and a dark location.
To enhance meteor viewing, stargazers should allow at least 15-20 minutes for their eyes to adjust to the darkness and dress warmly for winter conditions.
The radiant for the Quadrantids is located close to the Plough constellation, and astronomical conditions like moon phases can affect visibility during peak times.
