Quadrantid Meteor Shower Peaks Amidst Bright Wolf Moon Supermoon

The Quadrantid meteor shower peaked alongside the year's first supermoon, presenting a rare celestial event. While the bright moonlight from the supermoon is expected to significantly reduce the number of visible meteors, observers in darker areas may still catch glimpses of fireballs. This overlap highlights the impact of lunar brightness on meteor shower visibility, with fewer than 10 meteors per hour anticipated under optimal conditions due to the moon's interference.
