Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org
From March, 2024.
Today's 2 topics:
- In 2024, Voyager I is 163 times further from the Sun than we are and is the most distant, human made, traveler in the night.
- In 1924, 100 years ago, the Aldo Leopold Wilderness in southwestern New Mexico became the first designated wilderness and is an island from which to view the natural night sky. Today, because of inappropriate night lighting, the vast majority of children will never see the Milky Way, a meteor streaking across the sky, or have the opportunity to walk around at night by the light of the stars.
We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.
