Listen "An orderly planetary lineup and a dolphin's service remembered"
Episode Synopsis
The naked eye planets in our morning lineup can be seen in the same order in the sky that they are in distance from the sun.
Old stories tell of the dolphin among the constellations and the animal's service to other beings, including a human in trouble.
