Watching a big hawk in a giant Spruce tree hanging with a singing robin and the full moon eclipse the next morning and the next without the eclipse is still amazing! Poems from Margaret Pettis and Tina Thomas!
Looking up in the sky we enjoy the gems at the end of February and get out the Binoculars and find Kemble's Cascade chain of stars in the dim constellation Camelopardalis the Girraffe! We also check in on the Parker Solar Probe out on its way to Venus right now to slingshot around and get more Delta V on its way back to the Sun's Corona!
The winter skies and I'm thankful to say that here in the Mountain West are thrilling and we'll tell you about that a bit and then hop a ride to Jupiter and its Moons with European Space Agency's JUICE probe. Artemis II is successful in its 2nd refueling and dress rehearsal and NASA and its astronauts hope for a launch window starting March 6th. And we go to southeastern Africa and visit the exciting star lore from Mozambique as they have very interesting impressions of the Southern Cross and the large and small Magellenic clouds!
Jupiter and Saturn above and below Orion with Neptune and Uranus in the mix and Venus and Mercury in the southwest! Curiosity and Perserverance Rovers continue to rove do geology and take amazing snap shots! We check in on the 3/4 moon and what you can see right about now amongst the seas and mounts! And a very exciting view from the Philippines of their constellations and star goddess Tala!

Myself and Don Matteson from Cody, Wyoming go a bit in depth on the Skidi Pawnee tribe from the Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota plains. These people are sort of a k unknown quantity but lots of research has been done on these exciting people.
