I’ve always loved the constellations of the winter sky. I remember being really young and picking out Orion high in the sky.

OMG, this was such a clear explanation of the seasonal star patterns. Well done JPL

Keep looking up. Keep giving us billions annually. We use A LOT of TVs and like our conference rooms new and unused. Budget was also cut this year but we're still putting 96" TVs on the wall. Sometimes 6-10 in a room.

Did anyone notice that @ 1:42 JPL has the evening sky on the 14th showing a crescent moon as it would look - viewing from the Southern Hemisphere?

[@richardtemple7170]

Well, that's how I'll see it from Australia! Not all viewers of the video are in the USA.

Why not do it, yourself? The last time I looked, NASA/JPL didn't take special requests from CZcams. 🤔

Using the moon as a dumping ground for the ashes of wealthy humans is disgusting.
