Podcast about astronomy and the joys of watching the skies at night--and sometimes during the day

    Sideral and solar days

    Two planets are moving eastward in the morning sky. But for now, the sun's moving eastward faster. The way things look, the stars are climbing the sky each morning faster than those planets or the sun. I'll explain this effect of the difference between the sidereal and solar days.

    Color changing stars

    One more time, the moon reaches as far north as it can. Try to see Venus in the morning. Mars rides high at dusk. And sometimes, stars seem to change colors because of other stars next to them. You can try to make it happen in your own telescope!

    Ringless Saturn--out of sight

    Sometimes, Saturn appears ringless. We're about to cross the ring plane, from which we see--or don't see--the rings edge-on. Unfortunately, we won't get to see this phenomenon when it happens in a few weeks.

    Orbital undulations affecting the lunar looking
