There are 194 days until Ursid Meteor Shower, which is 27 weeks and 5 days, or approximately 4656 hours. That's 194 sleeps until Wednesday, December 16, 2026.

The Ursid Meteor Shower peaks on the night of December 22, close to the winter solstice, with 5-10 meteors per hour on a typical year. The radiant is in Ursa Minor near Polaris, making it a northern-hemisphere shower. The parent is Comet 8P/Tuttle. Ursids often go overlooked during the busy holiday period, but dark, clear winter nights still reward patient observers.
