THE MILKY WAY IS ONE OF THE MOST INCREDIBLE THINGS YOU CAN SEE IN OUR NIGHT SKY.
AND# FINDING IT IS EASY, LEMME SHOW YOU.
HEAD AWAY FROM CITY LIGHTS.
THIS WEEK IS A NEW# MOON SO IT’LL BE PRIME MILKY WAY VIEWING.
HIT THE DARKNESS AT 3AM LOOKING SOUTH.
LOOK FOR# ANTARES IN SCORPIUS WITH HIS HOOK-SHAPED TAIL.
NEXT, FIND SAGITTARIUS’ NOCKED ARROW - OR# TEAPOT, IF YOU SAW LAST WEEK’S EPISODE.
IN BETWEEN THE TWO IS A FAINT BAND OF LIGHT# STRETCHING FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST.
THAT.
MY FRIENDS.
IS OUR GALAXY.
THE MILKY WAY STRETCHES FOR 100,000# LIGHT YEARS AND CONTAINS HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF STARS.
LOOKING AT IT IS HUMBLING.
EVERYTHING WE’VE EVER DONE.
EVERY HUMAN THAT EVER WAS.
ALL ON THIS LITTLE SPECK IN ONE# OF HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF GALAXIES.
AND.
WE ARE LUCKY ENOUGH TO STUDY THESE MYSTERIES.
CONTEMPLATE THE VASTNESS.
KEEP LOOKIN’ UP.
