January 02, 2013
Assalamualaikum...
Hujan meteor Geminid tahunan telah memenuhi angkasa pada tanggal 13-14 Desember 2012 lalu.
Ada yang sempat lihat gak? wahh... beruntung banget kamu yang sempat melihat hujan meteor Geminid kemarin, karena hujan meteor Geminid baru akan terjadi lagi pada tanggal 13-15 Desember 2013 nanti. Kalau ditempatku waktu tanggal 13-14 Desember kemarin itu lagi mendung, malah malam-malam sebelumnya suka hujan deras... jadinya gak bisa mengamati humet nya deh...
Spesial buat kamu yang sama kayak aku, gak sempat mengamati peristiwa astronomi yang satu ini, berikut 10 foto hujan meteor Geminid yang terjadi pada 13-14 Desember 2012 kemarin, yang aku kumpulkan dari beberapa situs di internet :

A meteor shower lights up the sky
over the Mexican volcano Popocatepetl near the village San Nicolas de los Ranchos in Mexican state of Puebla in the early hours of December 14, 2004. The shower, named Geminid because it appears to originate from the constellation Gemini, lit up the sky with dozens of shooting stars per hour. REUTERS/Daniel Aguilar |

peaks
of the Seven Sisters rock formation early December 14, 2010 in the Valley of Fire State Park in Nevada. The meteor display, known as the Geminid meteor shower because it appears to radiate from the constellation Gemini, is thought to be the result of debris cast off from an asteroid-like object called 3200 Phaethon. The shower is visible every December. (Photo by Ethan Miller/Getty Images) *** BESTPIX *** |

a Geminid fireball explodes over the Mojave Desert in the Jojave Desert, Calif. on Dec. 13, 2009. In mid-December 2010, the Geminid meteor shower will make its annual appearance, just in time for Christmas. Astronomers consider it the best meteor shower of 2010, with more than 100 meteors streaking through the night sky every hour. |

Dan untuk foto yang terakhir ini, spesial banget lho...
Karena foto-foto diatas fotografer dan lokasinya dari luar negeri, nah untuk satu ini dari dalam negeri. Tepatnya dari Bali. Berikut fotonya :

Kombinasi terangnya cahaya meteor dan lamanya bukaan rana kamera (30 detik) menyebabkan lingkungan nampak terang benderang layaknya siang, padahal pengamatan dilakukan di Jumat dinihari 14 Desember 2012.

Subhanallah,
sungguh pemandangan langit yang sangat menakjubkan ya... :)
