Astro-recreations for a cloudy night - Moore's The Sky At Night
The BBC has made the last three years of Patrick Moore's monthly astronomy program _The Sky At Night_ available as internet streaming video files. The programs are served as RealPlayer streaming video. If you have a high-speed internet connection, these 1/2 hour beginner-intermediate level astronomy TV programs have more meat than general-public heavy-cgi entertainment-science programs that we American audiences are provided. http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/space/spaceguide/skyatnight/proginfo.shtml I have watched two of these programs: Nov. 2004. Star Death (Planetary nebulae) Oct. 2002. Astrophotography The general format is first 10 minutes is a beginner review of that month's sky. The next five minutes is news and updates on astronomical occurences. The last 15 is the in-depth segment on the program topic. - Canopus56 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Thanks for the link. I viewed one of the programs. It was wonderful. I'll be returning here with my children. Jim ---- Jim Cobb james@cobb.name On Mar 28, 2005, at 10:50 AM, Canopus56 wrote:
