Did you know our Sidewalk Astronomy corner is one of the best places for astronomy in Los Angeles County? We're # 7 (out of 8)! Here's the link to friend Chris Clarke's great writeup. He's been out to Mojave Star Parties, and is a great writer! http://www.kcet.org/living/travel/socal_wanderer/night-sky/stargazing/8-plac... And this month, my What's Up Podcast covers decidedly non-urban views of the Milky Way with images Mojo took our at our favorite desert location, Amboy Crater. ALos long time LA Sidewalk Astronomer George Willis's Milky Way from Mt. Pinos opens the podcast. Here's the link: http://youtu.be/lSejxrjhD_M Finally, if you can't join us Saturday night, do step outside and enjoy views of the moon below Mars tonight, near Mars tomorrow night, and near Saturn on the 7th! Finally, Mojo updated our Old Town Sidewalk Astronomers website, and he wrote a great explanation of the June and July skies. Oh and a call-out to mention we are celebrating ten years of sidewalk astronomy in Monrovia! Ten Years! Where does the time go! Check it out here! http://www.otastro.org/ -- Jane Houston Jones @jhjones @CassiniSaturn @NASAInsight What's Up For July? Milky Way, Pluto to Planets http://youtu.be/lSejxrjhD_M
