About Ursids 2026
The Ursids meteor shower peaks on the night of December 22, 2026 (December 22/23). The year's quiet closer: a modest shower (5â10 per hour) radiating from Ursa Minor, occasionally surprising with outbursts â for the dedicated, on the longest nights.
Best practice for any meteor shower: dark sky, no telescope, eyes adjusted for 30 minutes, look halfway up toward the radiant's constellation. The counter above runs to the peak night; meteors are visible several nights either side.
