Geminid Meteor Showers Peak - Videos
The Geminids, together with the Quadrantids, are the only major meteor showers not originating from a comet. The showers are thought to be intensifying every year. People have always looked to the sky as the home of their gods/creators encoded with the belief that they watch over humanity and will one day return. In ancient times and prophecies, the Geminid meteor showers, arriving close to Christmas, were revered by some as harbingers of peace and a prophecy of rebirth for humanity. For others, the Geminids brought fear, represented as a cleansing of the human experience by the creator.

An earthquake swarm has been occurring southwest of Adak Islands, Alaska, since December 8, 2024, beginning with M6.3 at a depth of 18 km (11 miles). The swarm includes multiple significant earthquakes, including two M6.3 events, an M6.1, and numerous aftershocks up to M5.8. The Aleutian Islands, including Adak Island, are located on the North American plate, which is being subducted (the sideways and downward movement of the edge of a plate of the earth's crust into the mantle beneath another plate) by the Pacific plate. It comes after a series of earthquakes caused evacuations across hundreds of miles in California and sparked a tsunami alert. Residents were forced to leave their homes after a magnitude 7.0 quake struck about 60 miles off the coast of Ferndale, in Humboldt County.

Metius was a Dutch geometer and astronomer.
In 1585, his father found the ratio of a circle's circumference
to its diameter, later called Pi 
.
Though he scoffed at astrology, Metius is said to have spent a
lot of time pursuing alchemy, especially the Philosopher's Stone.
Metius manufactured astronomical instruments,
and developed a special form of Jacob's Staff.
