ISS pass tonight, Sidewalk Astronomy Saturday (weather permitting.

First, tonight, a nice high ISS pass!  Time: Tue Apr 09 8:15 PM, Visible: 3 min, Max Height: 71°, Appears: 36° above WNW, Disappears: 19° above SE. Sign up for your own alerts at the NASA "Spot The Station" website https://spotthestation.nasa.gov/ Next, /NASA's What's Up podcast/ continues with a new team, but three of us Old Town Sidewalk Astronomers are credited in the April video with image contributions here: https://youtu.be/iZAKN8IiUdU Finally, Saturday night, some of us will be out with telescopes in Monrovia from sunset (7 p.m. DST) and for about 2 hours after that, so come on down to Library Park at the Myrtle and Lime corner. We'll be looking at the Moon and Mars, maybe the Pleiades or some other things not marred by light pollution. Watch /What's Up/ for some good viewing suggestions for the whole month, including how to find Polaris, the North Star! Hint:  It is not bright, but is easy to find. -- Jane Houston Jones, retired JPLer Twitter: @jhjones @otastro http://www.otastro.org/ Astronomy, travel, music, food, cats
