The Gemenid meteor shower generally radiates from the constellation Gemini, which is visible roughly from the northeast after sunset. However, most meteor showers do not peak until after midnight, and it doesn't really matter which direction you look.For best viewing conditions, go out into the country, as city lights make it difficult to see any but the brightest meteors. Lay down and look up. The Gemenids are an "iffy" sort of meteor shower in the northern hemisphere, because of the typically inclement weather.
The particles in a meteor shower are generally solid, until they smack into the Earth's atmosphere and actually become a "meteor shower". The meteor generally explodes, or vaporizes, or becomes plasma - but there are often still parts of the meteor that remain solid and impact the Earth.
