- Astronomers Pete Lawrence and Paul Abel reveal the best things to see in the night sky this month, including catching Venus before it disappears, the daytime lunar occultation of Jupiter, the Moon and the tongue-twisting stars of Libra!
a great episode last night, thank you
Cheers guys. Always nice to hear your thoughts.
Always entertaining, look forward to the virtual planetarium every month.
As a fairly long-term amateur astronomer, I'm so glad we inherited mainly Arabic star names rather than Latin ones, apart from the poetic sounds, they give us Westerners a great opportunity for misspelling, mispronunciation, and strangulated vowels...one day I'd love to hear a true Arabic speaker give the original pronunciation.
Unfortunately, my star atlas just has an American accent, so I'm still none the wiser.
I was at the Thornborough Henges a Neolithic monument in Yorkshire last night and Venus was still visible at 23hr..
Thnx
Very informative and nice to hear, as always.
Some new interesting targets for me in May, doubles in Bootes, an otherwise overlooked constellation.
IC 4665, in Serpent bearer is close by too, if you try and find M5... And easier to see.
I am wondering why you did not show the shot with the infrared camera. You spoke of it. Why not give a shot of it!
Hey Gents being a layman here I wonder if possible if a pointer could be used to point out the objects that you mention while talking? This coming from a fella in Canada
Make sure you haven't got a infrared filter on your camera 😉
The reason I don't watch the sky at night anymore. All the dammed CGI
