Minnesota Night Skies: strawberry moon forever - well, in June, anyway
This month on Minnesota Night Skies, the strawberry moon is ripe for picking starting June 10.
Plan your summer solstice party for June 20 at 9:42pm.
There’s a triple conjunction June 29 you can see with a map and binoculars.
The summertime Milky Way lets you, in Bob’s words, “drink a little starlight.”
Plus Regulus in Leo, and noctilucent clouds, this month on Minnesota Night Skies.
Astro Bob is podcasting! Astro Bob King and Echo Press reporter and host Lisa Johnson did an astronomy radio show together for many years, and now they’re back on a new podcast for all of Minnesota, called Minnesota Night Skies.
Bob King is an amateur astronomer, an photographer and author. His most recent book is called “Magnificent Aurora” about the Northern Lights. He writes a syndicated column for the Duluth News Tribune and is a regular contributor to Sky & Telescope magazine.
Bob recommends several guides to help you find what’s up in the sky. For more information about the star maps and a local information calendar, you can check out Skymaps.com. Also look for Stellarium Mobile where you get your apps. It's available for both Apple and Android phones. And check out Heavens Above at Heavens Above.com.
