A monthly guide to our dark skies by Geoff Burt
Written by Petersphere resident, astronomical expert and amateur astronomer Geoff Burt, and voiced by Claire Vennis, every month Shine Radio presents a Sky Watch of our unique dark skies.
Let Shine Radio open up the wonder of Petersfield’s night skies for magical star-gazing from your doorstep, in Sky Watch.
March
Sky Watch has been airing monthly on Shine Radio for two years already, and this is our 25th episode!
We might be focussed on the wonders of space, yet we can’t ignore the passage of time. Speaking of which, how do you fancy a spot of time travel?
Find out how and discover the celestial wonder, about 600 light years distant, of the lovely Beehive Cluster.
