Dr Ian Musgrave gives us his fabulous Holiday SkyGuide where he tell us all the beautiful sights that are in store for us over December and January.
Most of the planetary action is at family-friendly times in the evening skies.
We have Venus Jupiter and Saturn all at their best these holidays, a meteor shower still worth a look despite the full moon mid-December, an occultation of Saturn by the moon, and a re-appearance of the ‘Lunar X’ phenomenon.
In Ian’s Tangent he reveals the latest advances in the science of tracing the origins of meteors. It’s beautiful Science!
For those celebrating festive occasions with friends and family in December and January, have a happy and safe festive season.
Keep looking up, and Ian will be with you again in February 2025.
