This week "Eyes on the Sky" continues its tour of Taurus, highlighting the Pleiades and demonstrating ways to find - and the challenges of seeing - M1, or the Crab Nebula. Also discussed: Jupiter and its moons, plus when and where to find Venus (and the Moon), Mars, and Saturn this week (did you know you can see Mars before midnight now?)



As always, please post any comments, and feel free to share this video on social networking sites or astronomy club websites. In this video I included additional information about light pollution / light trespass, along with the sites that viewers can go to for more information about those problems (we have one right here in Illinois, too!).

Looks good Dave, but I am having audio synch issues again. It may be due to the fact that I am at work.

Hmmm... I tried it last night on HD settings, and it worked perfectly, so I assumed they were fixed, since I did have problems the prior week. Hope that's just a localized issue Erik. Thanks for the heads up on it though.

I'll try it again from home tonight.

Came out well for me.

Dial up is so uncool.

Dial Up? Bite your tongue. I haven't used a modem in more than 15 years.

Actually it plays fine at home.

Joe and Erik thanks for letting me know this one is playing okay this week. I still don't know what last week's issue was.
