The Meteor Shower is one of the most beautiful astronomical events that exist.
It is produced by the entry of the Earth in the trail of dust given off by comets on their journey around the Sun.
The Geminid shower comes from the wake of the asteroid Phaethon but gets its name from the point where the meteors apparently come from.
That is, its radiant is in the constellation of Gemini . The Geminid shower has left us, at its peak, 120 meteors per hour.
Sky Live TV, an initiative of Stars4all, has captured these images.
The Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias qualifies the 2017 event as spectacular.
"Probably the most intense rain in recent years due to the darkness of the night", according to Dr. Miquel Ricart, astrophysicist at the Teide Astronomical Observatory.
