    The Night Sky Podcast | Mars In Retrograde

    Hello, and thank you for listening to this episode of the night sky podcast. My name is Billy Newman. And I'm Marina Hansen. And this week, we're going to be talking really just about Mars right now. It's, it's at its brightest, I think it's for the next four days or so it's going to be at its very brightest that that we'll be able to see it. And that's because we're passing a point where Mars has been in opposition. And now it's at its closest point, or I think it's brightest pointer at its highest magnitude in the series. And so we thought that was a good point, to, to bring up and to talk about and to do kind of an episode that's all about the motion of Mars that people have been seeing and that we've been observing through the night sky over the past month, and then what motion is going to continue for the next month school, how we can kind of forecast it, and how it's so you know, lockstep and the amount of time that it takes to do these certain types of motions and patterns that have been observed for hundreds of years. 1000s of years now?

    Yeah, it's really interesting how we're able to predict it really to the day. Yeah.

    Yeah, it's, it's really, it's really specific, the timing of these progressions, and they don't seem to be that random. What I under

    The Night Sky Podcast | Moons Of Jupiter

    Hello, and thank you for listening to this episode of the night sky podcast. My name is Billy Newman. And I'm Marina Hansen. And this week, we're going to be talking about the things happening above us in the sky for the, I guess, 23rd 22nd of April. It's almost the end of April, right? That's like, we're in now. I was looking at some of the events that are going on, and then we're kind of going to dig into a couple of things about the planets that you can see right now. That'd be fun to talk about. It's gonna be cool. There's a lot of stuff going on right now. And we've done a lot this last week, too. Yeah. Yeah, which is, which is definitely the way to go. We got to do more, more observation stuff as much as we can. This is this is the season for us. That that becomes the most possible, especially here in Oregon, and in the Willamette Valley in the winter. And this winter, I think it's been an El Nino year, they say, but you know, there's been some nice days too. It's nice, a lot of waves of clouds. So mostly stormy. Yeah. November, December, January, February, and I'd say March, are all months where there's really consistent cloud cover, and there's a very slim chance that you'll be able to have a continued amount of good observational viewing nights for stars or, or for astronomical events or going on like in the mornings.

    Hello, and thank you for listening to this episode of the night sky podcast. My name is Billy Newman. And I'm Rena Hansen. And this time, we're going to be talking about what's going on in the stars above us for the second week of April 2016. Yeah, I guess it's still the first week of April, oh, a few days, it's a couple days into April, and we're gonna be asked for the fourth. I'm not sure when people are gonna listen to it, but probably the next couple of days and, and yeah, we're going to be talking about some of the scholarship events that are going to be going on. And I guess the beginning of April, like the others would be kind of been talking about a couple different topics through each episode that we, we have a discussion on, but this time, we're going to be talking about Mercury, which is cool. So we were talking about that during the time that we were outside doing some observations earlier, is that Mercury is going to be on the rise in the evening sky after the sun is set. That's going to be cool. So this week is going to be going to mark the start of the time that Mercury is going to be visible. We heard about that.

    Yeah, that's really cool. It's showing up again.

    The Night Sky Podcast | Lunar Eclipse And The Saros Cycle

    Hello, and thank you for listening to this episode of the night sky podcast. My name is Billy Newman. And I'm Marina Hansen. And today we're going to be talking about the changeover to the spring equinox that just happened a couple days ago, the new full moon that we had the eclipse that we had. Yeah, I just had that this morning, right? Yeah. A couple active things going on last couple days.

    pretty active. Yeah, a little a little bad weather here, though. So we didn't really get to catch the eclipse this morning.

    Yeah, no Eclipse visible for us. I think it was, I was most visible for people on the west coast, before dawn. And I'm sure there's a lot of people that that got good, a good viewing of it earlier today, or anybody like that's down in California and probably got a way better chance to get a chance to see it. But here in the northwest, it was pretty cloudy over in the West. on the horizon, we had a little bit of sunshine this morning, which I think was a surprise with the rest of the day. It's kind of been on and off again, rain.

    Yeah, he's really got me here in little Eugene.

    So we missed out on the eclipse that happened. But yesterday, the moon rose as a full

And then they finally merged together, when the two giant black holes a solar mass, like we talked about before, is the size of our Sun. So one sun, around Earth is one solar mass. So these black holes were each 30 solar masses, so 30 times more massive than the mass of the sun. And these two black holes smiled at each other.

    The Night Sky Podcast | The Chinese New Year

    Hello, and thank you for listening to this episode of the night sky podcast. My name is Billy Newman. And I'm Marina Hansen. And thank you for listening to this week's episode. We're going to be talking a little bit. I think we're going to dig in a little deeper this week into the Chinese New Year.

    Yeah. Chinese New Year was on Monday, the eighth of this month, I believe.

    Yeah. So starts Monday, the eighth of this of this month in 2016. And it's a year the monkey this year, that's my year. Little Marina. Yeah, that's pretty cool. I was been ADA. And that was, I think, the Year of the Dragon. Hey, that's cool. Pretty cool one. And I think there's like a handful of another what we just named two of them. So another 10 animals that are in the Chinese zodiac, but we'll get to the Chinese zodiac stuff in a minute. But what's cool, though, so like last year, the Chinese New Year wasn't until almost the end of February. And so it's weird that it's like on a different date. Right? Yeah. And so I had this, I added, because I really don't know much about the Chinese New Year other than that it is celebrated. And that it seems to be January or February, most every year, it's about what I know. But it's different than our calendar, right. So we're trying to dig into t

    The Night Sky Podcast | Winter Hexagon And The Big Dipper Myth

    Hello, and thank you for listening to this episode of the night sky podcast. My name is Billy Newman. And I'm Marina Hansen. And this week, we're gonna be speaking about a few of the upcoming skywatching events that will be happening in the night sky above us for the first and second week of February 2016. How are you doing, Marina? I'm doing well. That's cool. You know, it's been cool the last the last couple days, because we're fortunate on the west coast, we've, we've had a bit of clear weather, finally, yeah, pushed all the way through January, with all the rain and stuff that we've had kind of that El Nino year coming through, where we get the big rainstorm every week or so coming off of the east side of the earth, excuse me, the west end of the Pacific Ocean blows all the way across over Hawaii kind of comes over. It's the West Coast has been slamming us for like the last 45 days or so. So it's kind of like that weather pattern for the West Coast at least to get that little break in like the first second or third week of February, where you get this little fall spring, you get the first few blooms of the flowers, that sort of thing all through Valentine's Day. It's kind of that I think part of the Mediterranean climate, sort of that same system that they have on the right and Europe also. But so that's a nice opportunit
