Join us on Dec 13th at Al Qudra Desert to witness the spectacular Geminids meteor shower. While the bright glow of the full moon may dim some of the meteors, this stargazing event still offers a wonderful opportunity to spot some of the brightest shooting stars of the year. The evening will include telescope viewings, guided stargazing session, and engaging talks by expert astronomers, making it a magical night under the stars despite the moonlit skies.
