Shooting star rain on LAMOST telescope - China - Geminids over LAMOST telescope - China: Geminides shooting star rain above LAMOST telescope (Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fibre Spectroscopic Telescope), a 4-metre optical telescope, located on the site of the Xinglong Observatory in the Hebei region of China. December 2015. Space dust from asteroid 3200 Phaethon rained into the Earth's atmosphere, and burnt as meteors at about 100 km above Xinglong Station of National Astronomical Observatories of China, piercing the night sky over the Guoshoujing LAMOST telescope. All meteors seemed to radiate from the same point, which lies at Gemini, and that's how the meteor shower named Geminids.Over 100 meteors were captured in the composed image taken on the peak night of the 2015 Geminid meteor shower, and the brightest bolide even instantly lit up the landscape.
