1
00:00:08,839 --> 00:00:06,050
what's up for June moon and planet

2
00:00:11,780 --> 00:00:08,849
pairings at dawn and dusk spot elusive

3
00:00:13,759 --> 00:00:11,790
mercury some comets and more hello and

4
00:00:15,650 --> 00:00:13,769
welcome I'm Jane Houston Jones from

5
00:00:18,950 --> 00:00:15,660
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in

6
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:18,960
Pasadena California look for mercury low

7
00:00:22,939 --> 00:00:21,330
in the west-northwest sky just after

8
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:22,949
sunset at the beginning of the month

9
00:00:28,550 --> 00:00:24,930
you'll find it to the lower right of

10
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:28,560
jupiter on jun 29th and 30th try to spot

11
00:00:34,549 --> 00:00:31,050
jupiter very low on the sunset horizon

12
00:00:36,620 --> 00:00:34,559
below the crescent moon it's easy to

13
00:00:38,930 --> 00:00:36,630
spot Saturn and Mars when they pair up

14
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:38,940
with the moon Mars appears to the left

15
00:00:43,940 --> 00:00:41,850
of the moon on june sixth directly above

16
00:00:46,069 --> 00:00:43,950
the moon on the 7th and to the right of

17
00:00:48,319 --> 00:00:46,079
the moon on the 8th and you'll find

18
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:48,329
Saturn above the moon on June tenth and

19
00:00:53,209 --> 00:00:50,610
eleventh from a dark sky you'll see the

20
00:00:56,029 --> 00:00:53,219
constellation scorpius rising below the

21
00:00:58,040 --> 00:00:56,039
moon and Saturn at dawn venus is the

22
00:01:00,799 --> 00:00:58,050
bright object just to the left of the

23
00:01:04,609 --> 00:01:00,809
moon the Pleiades star cluster should be

24
00:01:07,700 --> 00:01:04,619
visible just above it speaking of dawn

25
00:01:09,859 --> 00:01:07,710
the dawn spacecrafts two targets Vesta

26
00:01:11,390 --> 00:01:09,869
and Ceres appear very close to one

27
00:01:14,109 --> 00:01:11,400
another in the night sky again this

28
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:14,119
month Vesta is the brighter of the two

29
00:01:19,399 --> 00:01:16,170
reflecting more light from its surface

30
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:19,409
than series from jun 29 through July

31
00:01:24,350 --> 00:01:21,930
twelfth the two objects appear only half

32
00:01:26,359 --> 00:01:24,360
a degree apart that's the apparent width

33
00:01:29,770 --> 00:01:26,369
of the full moon you can spot these

34
00:01:32,810 --> 00:01:29,780
objects with binoculars or telescopes

35
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:32,820
NASA's Dawn spacecraft arrives at Series

36
00:01:39,679 --> 00:01:37,170
in 2015 comet pan-starrs is still

37
00:01:42,679 --> 00:01:39,689
visible in telescopes this month shining

38
00:01:44,690 --> 00:01:42,689
at magnitude 8 astrophotographers will

39
00:01:47,179 --> 00:01:44,700
get a chance to image the comet together

40
00:01:50,420 --> 00:01:47,189
with a beautiful and faint spiral galaxy

41
00:01:52,910 --> 00:01:50,430
NGC 3184

42
00:01:54,830 --> 00:01:52,920
several faint periodic comets are

43
00:02:00,440 --> 00:01:54,840
visible through telescopes this month to

44
00:02:06,650 --> 00:02:00,450
come at 20 9p linear p 1998 you three

45
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:06,660
Jager and 154 p Brewington comet siding

46
00:02:11,540 --> 00:02:09,450
spring discovered by Robert McNaught at

47
00:02:14,750 --> 00:02:11,550
the siding spring Observatory in New

48
00:02:17,090 --> 00:02:14,760
South Wales Australia is visible low and

49
00:02:20,210 --> 00:02:17,100
spring sky in the constellation Fornax

50
00:02:22,580 --> 00:02:20,220
on October 19th this comet intersects

51
00:02:25,010 --> 00:02:22,590
the orbit of Mars and continues to be

52
00:02:28,250 --> 00:02:25,020
visible through October you can learn

53
00:02:31,479 --> 00:02:28,260
about how NASA studies comets Mars and

54
00:02:35,150 --> 00:02:31,489
Saturn and all of NASA's missions at
