Monrovia Star party video

Hi everyone! Some of you were at our last Monrovia star party, which was filmed by a JPL film crew. Just in time for the film award season (darn it, we missed the Golden Globes I'm afraid) here it is! It shows the joy of conducting a local star party, and I hope you enjoy it - you might even see yourself in the video! Its available in HD and Standard Definition, and there is a written transcript too. http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/video/index.cfm?id=804 Mojo put it on our Otastro website, too. http://www.otastro.org/ You Tube version: http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=JPLnews&view=videos NASAs International Year of Astronomy "Go Observe" sub-section for January 2009 is all about Venus, with lots of resources and good articles, including my January What's Up podcast about Venus - a link on the right side bar. You might enjoy reading the article about Venus or use some of the educational materials. http://astronomy2009.nasa.gov/observe.htm Next sidewalk events are Jan 30 Pasadena, January 31 Monrovia. Hope to see you then! Weather permitting, of course!
