Listen "Moon Mysteries and the Rise of Pegasus"
Episode Synopsis
Join us on this week's episode as we explore the night sky from September 1 to 7. With the New Moon providing darker skies, it’s a perfect time to observe deep sky objects, plus, spot the dazzling Venus at dusk.We also unravel the lore behind the constellation Pegasus and explain how the Moon’s subtle wobble, known as lunar libration, lets us glimpse more of its surface than you might expect.For more episodes and resources for backyard astronomers, visit www.startrails.show.
