In addition to this celestial show, the Quadrantid meteor shower is also ongoing, having been active since December 26 and peaking on Saturday, January 12. Dr. Robert Massey, deputy director of the Royal Astronomical Society in the UK, emphasized that for the best chance to see meteors, observers should seek areas away from light pollution. He encouraged viewers to take advantage of good weather conditions for an enchanting start to the New Year.

As photos from various locations illustrate, the celestial event was visible in places like Kolkata, India, and York, England, showcasing the beauty of the Moon and Venus juxtaposed against iconic landmarks. The memorable evening left many filled with wonder and anticipation for future celestial occurrences in 2025.
