Hi everybody, we'll have telescopes out tonight in Monrovia and hope to
see you! It looks like it will be clear for awhile after sunset but
clouds may move in. We will likely start about 5:30 pm, and our targets
will be the Moon, Saturn and perhaps Venus.
Here's this month's What's Up video:
https://science.nasa.gov/skywatching/whats-up/
"What's Up" is NASA's longest running web video series. It had its
first
episode in April 2007 with original host Jane Houston Jones. :-) Today,
Preston Dyches, Christopher Harris, and Lisa Poje are the space
enthusiasts who produce this monthly video series at NASA's Jet
Propulsion Laboratory. Additional astronomy subject matter guidance is
provided by JPL's Bill Dunford, Lyle Tavernier, and the Night Sky
Network's Kat Troche.
The What's Up team celebrates the memory of Gary Spiers, who provided
astronomy observing guidance for the series for many years. The Old Town
Sidewalk Astronomers also celebrate the life of Gary, who has been a
part of our family nearly since the beginning. I'm sure all of you who
have visited our sidewalk events, school events, and dark sky events
have looked through Gary's telescopes.
From Jane and the Old Town Sidewalk Astronomers. <3
