objects planets and events

3
00:00:43,190 --> 00:00:40,310
before the sky gets fully dark look for

4
00:00:45,190 --> 00:00:43,200
brilliant venus blazing just above the

5
00:00:47,350 --> 00:00:45,200
western horizon

6
00:00:50,389 --> 00:00:47,360
during the first half of the month try

7
00:01:05,830 --> 00:00:50,399
to find the dimmer glow of mercury close

8
00:01:11,030 --> 00:01:08,469
after sunset saturn appears in the

9
00:01:19,830 --> 00:01:11,040
southern sky to the left of the bright

10
00:01:44,630 --> 00:01:22,550
saturn will gradually slip into the west

11
00:01:52,830 --> 00:01:47,350
turn your gaze upward to find four

12
00:01:59,990 --> 00:01:56,469
constellations high overhead lies bootes

13
00:02:04,870 --> 00:02:02,230
find it by looking for its prominent

14
00:02:13,670 --> 00:02:04,880
kite shape which was noted by many

15
00:02:19,589 --> 00:02:16,550
arcturus is the fourth brightest star in

16
00:02:27,670 --> 00:02:22,790
the star epsilon bowotis is also known

17
00:02:35,190 --> 00:02:30,869
in binoculars izar resolves into one of

18
00:02:38,229 --> 00:02:35,200
the finest double stars in the sky

19
00:02:59,350 --> 00:02:38,239
the color contrast between the stars is

20
00:03:08,470 --> 00:03:02,309
just to the left of bootes lies the

21
00:03:14,070 --> 00:03:11,270
this lovely circlet of stars represents

22
00:03:17,990 --> 00:03:14,080
the wedding crown of ariadne the

23
00:03:20,470 --> 00:03:18,000

while the stars are not very bright

25
00:03:51,670 --> 00:03:48,710
the mythical strongman hercules is also

26
00:03:56,229 --> 00:03:51,680
found high in the summer night sky

27
00:04:03,910 --> 00:04:01,110
the constellation is rather dim

28
00:04:06,710 --> 00:04:03,920
look for its lopsided square of four

29
00:04:09,990 --> 00:04:06,720
stars called the keystone

30
00:04:12,390 --> 00:04:10,000
the keystone in hercules is the key to

31
00:04:16,069 --> 00:04:12,400
finding one of the brightest globular

32
00:04:19,110 --> 00:04:16,079
star clusters in the summer night sky

33
00:04:23,270 --> 00:04:19,120
the wonderful hercules cluster also

34
00:04:25,030 --> 00:04:23,280
known as m13 contains about a million

00:04:30,629 --> 00:04:27,680
outside the keystone lies another

37
00:04:32,629 --> 00:04:30,639
magnificent globular cluster of stars

38
00:04:35,189 --> 00:04:32,639
m92

39
00:04:38,070 --> 00:04:35,199
globular clusters are collections of

40
00:05:01,030 --> 00:04:38,080
closely packed gravitationally bound

41
00:05:07,590 --> 00:05:04,629
draco the dragon winds his way through

42
00:05:10,629 --> 00:05:07,600
the northern sky

43
00:05:12,310 --> 00:05:10,639
the dragon's head is a skewed square of

44
00:05:21,430 --> 00:05:12,320
stars

45
00:05:27,909 --> 00:05:21,440
which look like a bright pair of

46
00:05:32,550 --> 00:05:31,270
the night sky is always a celestial
