News fro RVCC Planetarium:
Geminid Meteor Shower
This annual meteor shower is one of the best of the year. It is predicted to peak on the night of December 13. Under a dark sky with no moonlight or light pollution to interfere, one can see as many as 120 meteors per hour! But this year, the peak arrives two days before the Full Moon, so there will be plenty of moonlight to wash out meteors. And as for light pollution? Well, we live in New Jersey, so there is often plenty of that. Luckily, many of the Geminids are bright, so bundle up and grab a cup of hot cocoa, and look up and all around after dark. The best time to see any meteor shower is after midnight, if you can stay up that late.

HALL OF FAME HONORS FOR RVCC
The Hunterdon County Business Hall of Fame was established to honor current and past business leaders, businesses & organizations, who have made important contributions to the Hunterdon County business community. Last month, six inductees were recognized as part of the 2024 class: Edward J. Kurowicki (Distinguished Leader Award), Unity Bank (Contemporary Award), Stem Brothers (Contemporary Award), Gebhardt & Kiefer, P.C. (Pioneer Award), Hunterdon County Clerk Hon. Mary H. Melfi (Essence of Hunterdon Award) and Raritan Valley Community College (Essence of Hunterdon Award).

Notes Christopher Phelan, President and CEO of the Hunterdon County Chamber of Commerce, “we celebrate Raritan Valley Community College not only for its outstanding educational contributions but also for its unwavering commitment to community enrichment, sustainability, and student success.

“It’s a true honor to recognize an institution that has become a pillar of education, innovation, and community engagement in New Jersey,” adds Phelan. “Since its founding in 1966, Raritan Valley Community College has been committed to empowering students of all backgrounds to achieve their dreams and make meaningful contributions to society.”

We applaud RVCC for preparing students not only for transfer to top universities but also for equipping them with hands-on skills for today’s rapidly changing job market.
