The Quadrantid meteor shower, the first of 2026, is peaking with the potential to display over 100 shooting stars per hour. Originating from asteroid 2003 EH1 debris, the shower's peak viewing window in India is early Sunday, January 4, between 3:00 am and 5:30 am IST. While the year's first supermoon may dim fainter meteors, the Quadrantids are known for bright fireballs. Best viewing requires a dark location, patience, and allowing eyes to adjust.
