Stargazing this Month

While it’s not yet officially winter for those of us in the northern hemisphere and a few weeks from high summer for southern hemisphere observers, there are some objects in the sky that we can share together. I’m talking about planets and star clusters and the Leonid Meteor shower.  The shower itself runs much of the month, but peaks on the night of the 17th into the 18th. Luckily the Moon doesn’t interfere, so you might have a chance to see some meteors — if the weather is good!

It’s all outlined in this month’s Our Night Sky episode at Astrocast.TV. Check it out below and happy stargazing!
