THE GEMINID METEOR SHOWER IS UNDERWAY: Earth is entering a stream of gravelly 
debris from "rock comet" 3200 Phaethon, source of the annual Geminid meteor 
shower.  Although the shower's peak is not expected until Dec. 13-14, observers 
are already seeing fireballs fly out of the constellation Gemini as 
early-arriving meteoroids hit Earth's atmosphere traveling ~35 km/s (78,000 
mph). More information and observing tips may be found on today's edition of 
Spaceweather.com.
