Did you miss the Taurid Meteor Show of Nov. 12? Don't fret, astronomers anticipate two more meteor showers to take place over the next month, and perhaps, weather permitting, you can find an open space locally where you can view the skies (with little to no extraneous light) such as a county park in Stone Mountain , Lithonia or even your own back yard to witness the light shows: Nov. 17: Leonid Meteor Shower Dec. 13: Geminid Meteor Shower Be sure to schedule a night this season to bundle up, lay out some blankets and enjoy the light show in the sky.  Share your tips for photographing the showers, and tell us your favorite place in Stone Mountain or Lithonia to view the skies.
