 	A New Meteor Shower in December?

NASA Science News for Dec. 11, 2012

Forecasters say a stream of meteoroids from Comet Wirtanen could cut
across Earth's path this week, creating a new meteor shower. If the shower
materializes (a big if) it would add to the ongoing display of Geminid
meteors which peaks on Dec. 13-14.
