Tuesday, April 20th 2021, 1:25 pm - The first meteor shower of spring, the Earth Day Lyrids, are definitely a sight to see.
Eyes to the sky on Wednesday night and Thursday morning! The Lyrid meteor shower is reaching its annual peak!
As our planet travels along its orbit around the Sun, it is currently passing through a stream of dust, ice and grit left behind by the passage of a comet known as C/1861 G1 Thatcher. The comet itself is presently billions of kilometres away, out beyond the orbit of Pluto. Last seen in 1861, it will not be seen again near Earth until the year 2276.

mardi, 22 décembre 2020 à 11:00 - The Great Conjunction may be over, but Jupiter and Saturn aren t done showing off.
On December 21, we were witness to the greatest Great Conjunction seen in nearly 800 years. Keep your eyes on the southwest horizon just after sunset in the week to come, though, as Jupiter and Saturn continue to put on an amazing show.
The two most massive planets in our solar system have been a constant sight in our night skies so far in 2020. Throughout the year, the Jupiter and Saturn have appeared to be locked in a slow dance. Drawing closer and closer for the first half of the year, they then pulled apart again until Fall, and then they slowly approaching again, night by night, leading up to the Winter Solstice.
