Astronomy Daily — S05E141 | Wednesday 15 July 2026 Anna and Avery bring you the biggest space and astronomy news of the day: Starship Flight 13 is cleared for Thursday after the FAA closes its Flight 12 investigation and SpaceX reveals exactly what went wrong; NASA astronaut Anil Menon rides a Soyuz to the ISS on his first flight; astronomers finally find the first of Omega Centauri's 10,000 "missing" black holes; the first-ever medical X-rays taken in space are published; four white dwarfs are found hiding within 65 light-years of Earth; and a new-moon dark-sky window opens with Comet 10P/Tempel 2 on the rise. In this episode •       Starship Flight 13 — FAA closes the Flight 12 mishap investigation (July 13); root causes revealed: hot-staging ignition sequence caused a 90° booster orientation error, five Raptors failed to relight, alarm settings shut engines down early. Launch window opens Thursday July 16, 6:45pm EDT (Friday 8:45am AEST) with the first 20 functional Starlink V3 satellites and an in-space Raptor relight. •       Soyuz MS-29 — NASA's Anil Menon with cosmonauts Pyotr Dubrov and Anna Kikina launched from Baikonur July 14, docking three hours later for an eight-month stay. Menon and wife Anna Menon (Polaris Dawn) become a two-astronaut household; NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman attended in person. •       Omega Centauri's first stellar-mass black hole — oMEGACat BH-2, found via astrometry in 20+ years of Hubble data plus Webb observations (ApJL, July 13). Lower-than-expected mass; its companion star's 94-year orbit makes it the longest-period black hole binary known. The cluster is naked-eye visible in southern winter skies right now. •       First medical X-rays in space — RSNA publishes results from the Fram2 Crew Dragon mission: crew with 4 hours' training produced diagnostic-quality X-rays in orbit, opening the door to space radiology and non-destructive hardware testing on Moon and Mars missions. •       Four hidden white dwarfs — Warwick/Colorado Boulder team unmasks four white dwarfs within 65 light-years using Hubble near-UV spectroscopy (MNRAS). G 203-47, ~25 light-years away, is now the ninth-closest known white dwarf and closes a 27-year-old wobble mystery. •       Skywatch — New Moon (July 14) dark skies, Milky Way core season for the Southern Hemisphere, Comet 10P/Tempel 2 at magnitude 7–8 brightening toward early-August perihelion, and Mars near Aldebaran pre-dawn.

Astronomy Daily — S05E140 | Tuesday 14 July 2026 | Hosts: Anna & Avery Space mirrors are officially cleared for launch — and astronomers are sounding the alarm. In today's episode, Anna and Avery unpack the FCC's approval of Reflect Orbital's Eärendil-1, the first of a proposed constellation of sunlight-reflecting satellites, and what tens of thousands of orbital mirrors could mean for the night sky. Then it's off to the geostationary belt, where astronomers using clever image-stacking — with help from Siding Spring Observatory and the ANU — have revealed a minefield of invisible debris, most of it in no public catalogue. Also on the show: physicists in New York recreate black hole energy extraction on a benchtop, validating a 50-year-old Penrose prediction with 'synthetic rotation'; the Extremely Large Telescope in Chile turns on its axis for the very first time — 3,500 tonnes floating on 80 microns of oil; and University of Sydney's Dr Manisha Caleb and colleagues lay out how the Square Kilometre Array will turn fast radio bursts into a survey tool for the invisible universe. Plus a quick Starship Flight 13 update (now NET Thursday 16 July after a full 33-engine static fire), the story of Avi Loeb's appointment to chair the White House UAP Science Advisory Council, and a skywatch built around tonight's super new Moon.

Future spelunkers might want to explore caves on the Moon and Mars. Scientists have mapped many cave openings on both worlds. On the Moon, caves could provide shelter from radiation and meteorites for astronauts. On Mars, they could provide shelter for microscopic life that was born on the planet itself. Orbiting spacecraft have photographed some likely cave entrances on both worlds. They’re big holes in the ground. They may lead to larger chambers on the sides. On the Moon, the caves probably were excavated by lava flowing below the surface. After the lava disappeared, parts of the empty tubes they left behind caved in, providing the openings. The side chambers could be good places to set up lunar habitats. Most of the caves on Mars probably formed the same way. But a recent study found eight caves that might have been carved by water. The caves were seen in a region that’s marked by deep channels that carried water in the distant past. The surface water dried up long ago. But the caves could lead to buried pools of ice. If life ever evolved on Mars, it might have survived in those damp locations. So the caves could be a good place to check for life on the Red Planet. The Moon and Mars line up with the star Aldebaran in tomorrow’s dawn sky. Mars looks like a bright star to the lower right of the Moon. Aldebaran is an even brighter star, about the same distance to the lower right of Mars. Script by Damond Benningfield

John Black returns to MSD for an Aldebaran explorartion update from their Altar Project. Camp has recently been closed for the season, but the company did complete a fresh round of infill driling for PFS-level conversion. John also walks through the latest updates on the Centauri Metals spinout, which is anticipated to finalize this fall.

Small Cap Breaking News You Can't Miss!Here's a quick rundown of the latest updates from standout small-cap companies making big moves today:LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) (FSE: 3WK0)LaFleur and Trafigura extended their exclusivity and due diligence period to August 31, 2026 on a proposed prepayment facility of up to C$30 million plus a gold dore offtake agreement. Reconditioning of the wholly owned Beacon Gold Mill near Val-d'Or, Quebec is now about 84% complete and on budget, with staged commissioning targeted for Q4 2026. The non-dilutive structure and a global commodities partner mark a disciplined path toward restarting gold production.HPQ Silicon Inc. (TSX-V: HPQ) (OTCQB: HPQFF) (FRA: O08)HPQ said its Fumed Silica Reactor pilot program has advanced beyond validation toward commercial deployment after producing commercial-grade fumed silica directly from quartz. An engineering review by partner PyroGenesis strengthened confidence in the technology's commercial-scale economics, and strategic discussions have expanded beyond the original 1,000-tonne-per-year plant agreement. Reduced technical uncertainty positions the reactor for multiple deployment models.ATHA Energy Corp. (TSX-V: SASK) (OTCQX: SASKF) (FRA: X5U)ATHA reported a major new high-grade uranium discovery at Lac 50 Northwest, roughly 4 km along strike from its Lac 50 Deposit. Hole L50W-DD-002 cut 11.5 m of composite mineralization including 1.6 m of high-grade material peaking at 40,162 counts per second. It is the company's sixth regional discovery in 15 months, underscoring the scale potential of the 100 percent owned Angilak project in Nunavut.Minaurum Silver Inc. (TSXV: MGG) (OTCQX: MMRGF) (FSE: 78M0)Minaurum extended the high-grade Quintera vein at depth, cutting 5.95 m of 1,117 g/t silver equivalent including 2.40 m of 2,557 g/t AgEq at its Alamos project in Sonora, Mexico. The Europa Sur zone returned 3.65 m of 888 g/t AgEq, part of an ongoing 50,000-metre resource-expansion program. The results point to meaningful resource growth at a historically productive silver district.Andina Copper Corporation (TSX-V: ANDC) (FSE: FIR) (OTCQB: PMMCF)Andina confirmed a new copper-gold porphyry discovery at Piuquenes North in San Juan, Argentina, with hole PIU13 returning 468 m at 0.50% Cu and 0.30 g/t Au, including 164 m at 0.70% Cu and 0.44 g/t Au. The two initial holes tested only a small part of an 800 m by 700 m geophysical anomaly that remains open in all directions. The find sits adjacent to Aldebaran's Altar project along a prolific Andean porphyry belt.Bottom Line: Today's news spans gold, silver, copper and uranium, with LaFleur nearing a mill restart and HPQ advancing its silica technology while ATHA, Minaurum and Andina each delivered fresh high-grade drill discoveries. Together they point to a small-cap resource sector powered by infrastructure progress and rapid exploration success.Stay ahead of the market — follow AGORACOM for more breaking small-cap news and insights.

Anna Lisa Wärnlöf, alias Claque, har aldrig fått en framträdande plats i den svenska litteraturen. Men hon är en av våra stora stilister, tycker Ulrika Knutson som hyllar Pella-böckernas skapare. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Essän sändes första gången 2017. Varför är det så svårt att tala om det som betytt allra mest, också böcker? Därför att man är rädd att avslöja sitt innersta, förstås, och finna det banalt. Men om det skulle vara så, så är det inte Anna-Lisa Wärnlöfs fel. Någon sa häromdagen att om Anna-Lisa Wärnlöf, med signaturen Claque, hade varit karl, så hade hon stått ordentligt synlig på klassikerhyllan: avdelningen stilister, mellan Per Rådström och Claes Hylinger. Visst skulle det vara så! Men förklädd till flickbok och kåseri är Claque för alltid utstraffad från den riktiga litteraturen. Ha. På ofattbara sju år, 1958-1965 skriver hon de fyra romanerna om Pella, tre om den buttra Fredrike och hennes krets, och så den märkliga barndomsbiografin ”Boken om Agnes”, 1963. Detta är Claques litterära verk och värld, som nu alltså lever ett rikt liv under klassikerhyllan, under radarn, och älskas hett i hemlighet. Hon går som ett mycel genom bibiotek och antikvariat. Varhelst du minst anar det kan du hitta en läsare flaskmatad med Pella-sentenser. De sitter som slaktstämplar, går aldrig ur. Den som först kom ut ur garderoben som Pella-beroende var Gun-Britt Sundström, ett stilistiskt barn av Sören Kirkegaard – och Claque. Anna-Lisa Wärnlöf – född 1911, död 1987 – var som mest verksam under det tidiga sextiotalet, samtida med miljonprogrammet. Hennes ton gycklar med det andliga rivningsraseriet, den snabba nivelleringen i demokratins namn; en estetisk protest besläktad med Olle Adolphsons visor. Hos Claque finns samma ironiska melankoli, och sinne för ordens poesi. Hos Olle var det "nedisad Volvo med släp", och "kokt kummel med äggsås". Anna-Lisa har samma blick för det konkreta. Majorskan sitter i skymningen och "njuter av att ha två tummar", Pella kräks i duffelkragen vid tanken på att trassla till altaret i tolv meter organza. I fyrtio år övade hon sig som kåsör i Svenska Dagbladet, uppskattad men skygg. På fyrtio år satte hon inte sin fot på redaktionen. Men lilla Pella och farmor Majorskan och tant Signhild levde redan och verkade för fullt i tidningen när Wärnlöf romandebuterade med ”Pellas bok” 1958. När jag mötte Pella i början av sjuttiotalet var de här böckerna bara tio-femton år gamla, ändå speglade de en försvunnen värld, med exotiska inslag av flickskolor, hembiträden och bostadsbrist. Och spridda skurar av borgerlig bildning, som om det hade varit något fullt normalt och ingenting att oroa sig över. Pella själv läste böcker av Proust, Dickens och Cora Sandel – och hon gjorde det med ett självklart välbehag, utan känslor av skam. Detta var inte förenligt med min tonårskultur i början av sjuttiotalet, som utspelade sig i en atmosfär av V-jeans, tristess och symfonisk rock. Om jag hade velat spegla den atmosfären i litteratur så gav Kerstin Thorvall, Sven Wernström och Max Lundgren utmärkta möjligheter, i ungdomsromanens guldålder. Men böckerna om Pella ägnar sig inte bara åt spegling, utan gläntar på kommande liv. De kan man – till stora delar – läsa om, och växa med. Anna-Lisa Wärnlöf låter tonåringens världsbild möta riktigt gamla människors, och mycket små barns. En åtta månaders baby kan vara en stark personlighet hos Claque, som kan väcka dina antipatier också. Att föräldrar och barn, särskilt mödrar och barn, inte självklart finner varandra är en del av Claqueböckernas tidlösa innehåll. Och oavsett ålder får alla inblandade behålla sin integritet – och sina passioner. Passion kan uttryckas av också av det lilla barnet. Som i ”Boken om Agnes”, när småflickorna har skiljts åt och katastrofen ligger i öppen dager. Om hjärtat är krossat spelar det ingen roll om man är sex eller sextio år. Så här uttrycker sig den lilla Anna-Lisa: "Jag var Agneslös, och inte mer med det. Hur gör man när man hänger sig? Jag hade en pilbåge. Kanalen." Humor kan vara hjärtskärande, om den paras med livsinsikt. Att våra personligheter är så oföränderliga, att vi liknar oss själva som barn, är också en drabbande insikt. Inte särskilt behaglig. Det borde vi tänka lite mer på i vår tid, när vi vuxna är så stressade att vi inte står ut med att se barnen ha tråkigt. Eller ens tanken på att de har tråkigt! Hur de egentligen har det orkar vi inte ta reda på. Läste nyss en rubrik om att folk minutplanerar barnkalasen för att för död och pina inte riskera att barnen ser sin egen leda i vitögat. Vad skulle inte Claque kunna ha gjort av det ämnet? Vissa ämnen har hon klokt avstått ifrån – sexualiteten till exempel. Det bidrar till den goda tidlösheten. Erotiken uttrycks mer genom längtan och bilder som man inte glömmer: som Älskar du mig? sa Ulf Jacob. Obetydligt, sa jag, och tänderna mjuknade i min mun. Jag kan inte minnas att jag saknade explicit erotik – den fanns ju att tillgå överallt annars, för den som var läskunnig. Nej, Pella tillfredsställde andra behov. De två avgörande var den moralfilosofiska diskussionen, och stilens narkomani. Anna-Lisa Wärnlöfs stil är beroendeframkallande. Och smittsam. En pretentiös hållning ser jag automatiskt som "ett öde stort som en mössa". Att det inte är min egen bild ha jag glömt för länge sedan. Men ingen når Claques avvägda blandning av under- och överdrifter, och utförda aforismer, som kan rymma en världsbild: "Om ett barn ber om ett snöre, avfärda det inte med en kyss. Ge det ett snöre". Punktens placering är också viktig. Den surt förvärvade slutsatsens markering. Ge det ett snöre. Claque strör gärna ut små hälsningar till egna inspirationskällor. Den märkligaste möter vi i Pellas andra bok, där hon just har blivit kär i Ulf Jacob. På artonårsdagen ger han henne en nött gammal bok: "Läs den tös, du får den. Den är skriven för sådana som du och jag." Den repliken är lömsk, riktad till intellektuella flickstackare med garden nere – den går via trosorna, kan man säga. Men om man ska sublimera den boken får man jobba duktigt. Boken är ”En drömmares dagbok”, av den schweiziske artonhundratalsförfattaren Henri Frederic Amiel. Det blir en ganska rolig effekt när Pella och Ulf Jacob står och smusslar med Amiel, samtidigt som deras kompisar diggar Sinatra och Bill Haley på skivspelaren i rummet intill. Amiels ”En drömmares dagbok” blev på sin tid kult bland hyperkänsliga esteter i hela Europa, kärleksfullt översatt av en av den svenska litteraturens mest ömhudade kritiker, nämligen Klara Johanson; hon som recenserade allt, som inte kunde låta bli att recensera solnedgången. Ett nytt drama varje kväl. Klara Johansons andra stora idol var för övrigt Fredrika Bremer, vars spetsprydliga feminism viftar fram överallt i Pellas farmor Majorskans referenser. Klara Johanson är en av Claques viktiga förebilder bland estetiska ironiker – Oscar Wilde en annan – och så förstås Cora Sandel och Marcel Proust. Anna-Lisa Wärnlöf bakar också Madeleinekakor, med kärlek och smör, och psykiska trauman. En bild som återkommer i flera av böckerna, troligen självupplevd, är när några några clowner fallit i vattnet, och människorna på stranden skrattar av hjärtans lust, men tystnar när en av clownerna bärs bort, drunknad. Barnet grips av en förlamande ödslighet, identiteten brister. Som det står i ”Boken om Agnes”: "Det slog mig att jag kanske inte var någon liten flicka. Kanske var jag en pojke. Kanske var jag ett troll eller möjligen något slags djur." Det är det som alla Claques texter handlar om. Att skrapa ihop de spridda bitarna av sig själv, till ett slags mönster.

Two full moons in May means we are closing a big chapter, and this last one on May 31st lands on one of the most powerful fixed stars in the zodiac with its counterpart sitting directly across the sky. In this episode I walk you through the astrology of this Sagittarius full moon, what the fixed stars Antares and Aldebaran are actually asking of you, and why this lunation is less about what you know and more about what you dare to believe. Plus Akashic oracle readings for every sign.

Aldebaran Resources continues advancing the massive Altar copper-gold project in Argentina with new infill drill results aimed at upgrading inferred resources into measured and indicated categories ahead of next year's pre-feasibility study. CEO John Black discusses the latest wide intercepts from Altar East and Altar United, the ongoing geotechnical drilling campaign, and how the company is evaluating different development scenarios ranging from a hybrid open pit-underground operation to a potentially larger-scale mine plan. The conversation also touches on key upcoming catalysts including a new mineral resource estimate expected later this year, potential participation in Argentina's RIGI incentive framework, and the continued advancement of the Centenario spinout package. With more drill results pending and the project steadily moving toward pre-feasibility, Aldebaran says Altar is entering a critical stage of long-term de-risking and value creation.

In deze zesde aflevering van ‘Boegbeelden & Bliktrekkers' staat de ultieme vrijheid van het zeezeilen centraal. Presentator Erik Peekel gaat in gesprek met zeezeilers Aad en Hella Twigt, die samen meer dan 200.000 zeemijlen aflegden en grote delen van de wereldzeeën bevoeren.Van hun eerste reis in 1974 zonder moderne communicatie tot het ronden van Kaap Hoorn met hun jonge dochters aan boord. Een gesprek over de ultieme vrijheid van de zee, de noodzakelijke discipline aan boord en de bijzondere opvoeding van hun kinderen op de oceaan.In deze aflevering hoor je over:De sprong in het diepe: Waarom Aad en Hella in 1974 alles achterlieten om met de Aldebaran de Atlantische Oceaan over te steken.Gezinsleven op de oceaan: Hoe Agnita en Alies opgroeiden als 'zeezigeuners' en de prestigieuze Daughters of Cape Horn Trophy wonnen.De psychologie van de lange reis: Wat is het geheim om jarenlang op een kleine oppervlakte de vrede te bewaren en stress te voorkomen?Een inspirerende aflevering over zeezeilen, wereldreizen, oceaanzeilen, gezinsleven aan boord en de tijdloze aantrekkingskracht van de zee.Podcastmaker Rik BoumanThe core of this podcast episode revolves around a compelling narrative of adventure, resilience, and the pursuit of freedom, as experienced by Aad and Hella Twicht, who have collectively navigated over 200,000 nautical miles. Their journey encompasses the crossing of oceans and the profound challenges faced while rounding Cape Horn with their young daughters aboard, a testament to their unwavering spirit and dedication to exploration. Throughout the conversation, we delve into their initial decision to abandon conventional life for the vast unknown of the seas, highlighting the pivotal moments that shaped their path and the reactions of those around them. The episode further explores the intricacies of family life on a sailboat, the lessons learned from both triumphs and tribulations, and the impact of their adventurous lifestyle on their daughters. Ultimately, their story serves as an inspiring reminder that the pursuit of one's dreams, despite the inevitable uncertainties, can yield a life rich in experiences and profound connections.Situated in the heart of Rotterdam, the Royal Rowing and Sailing Association de Maas stands as a venerable institution, bridging the city and its waterways for over 175 years. In this enlightening dialogue, I engage with Aad and Hella Twicht, two seasoned sailors who have traversed more than 200,000 nautical miles, including the formidable Cape Horn, while accompanied by their daughters.

Een gesprek over de ultieme vrijheid van de zee, de noodzakelijke discipline aan boord en de bijzondere opvoeding van hun kinderen op de oceaan.In deze aflevering hoor je over:De sprong in het diepe: Waarom Aad en Hella in 1974 alles achterlieten om met de Aldebaran de Atlantische Oceaan over te steken.Gezinsleven op de oceaan: Hoe Agnita en Alies opgroeiden als 'zeezigeuners' en de prestigieuze Daughters of Cape Horn Trophy wonnen.De psychologie van de lange reis: Wat is het geheim om jarenlang op een kleine oppervlakte de vrede te bewaren en stress te voorkomen?Een inspirerende aflevering over zeezeilen, wereldreizen, oceaanzeilen, gezinsleven aan boord en de tijdloze aantrekkingskracht van de zee.Podcastmaker Rik BoumanThe core of this podcast episode revolves around a compelling narrative of adventure, resilience, and the pursuit of freedom, as experienced by Aad and Hella Twicht, who have collectively navigated over 200,000 nautical miles. Their journey encompasses the crossing of oceans and the profound challenges faced while rounding Cape Horn with their young daughters aboard, a testament to their unwavering spirit and dedication to exploration. Throughout the conversation, we delve into their initial decision to abandon conventional life for the vast unknown of the seas, highlighting the pivotal moments that shaped their path and the reactions of those around them. The episode further explores the intricacies of family life on a sailboat, the lessons learned from both triumphs and tribulations, and the impact of their adventurous lifestyle on their daughters. Ultimately, their story serves as an inspiring reminder that the pursuit of one's dreams, despite the inevitable uncertainties, can yield a life rich in experiences and profound connections.Situated in the heart of Rotterdam, the Royal Rowing and Sailing Association de Maas stands as a venerable institution, bridging the city and its waterways for over 175 years. In this enlightening dialogue, I engage with Aad and Hella Twicht, two seasoned sailors who have traversed more than 200,000 nautical miles, including the formidable Cape Horn, while accompanied by their daughters. Their narratives not only recount epic voyages but also delve into the profound transformations that sailing has instigated in their lives, fundamentally altering their perspectives on freedom, adventure, and familial bonds. A poignant aspect of their sailing odyssey is the evolution of their family dynamics, particularly as they embarked on a second, more ambitious journey in 1986 with their children.

The Moon passes through the bull tonight. The bull’s “eye” – the star Aldebaran – is off to the left of the Moon. The bull’s face and shoulder are even closer, represented by a pair of star clusters – the Hyades and the Pleiades. For the most part, you can’t tell the distance to an astronomical object just by its appearance. Something that looks quite bright might be close, but it might also be far away and especially bright. But you can tell something about the distances to the objects around the Moon tonight by their appearance. The Pleiades looks like a tiny dipper close below the Moon. It contains hundreds of young stars, some of which are hot and bright. But the cluster’s small size is a good indication of its distance – almost 450 light-years. The Hyades looks bigger. It forms a letter V that outlines the bull’s face. It looks a good bit more spread out than the Pleiades. But that’s largely because it’s only a third as distant. Aldebaran stands at the top left point of the V. It outshines all the other points. In part, that’s because it’s less than half as far – just 65 light-years away. So these prominent features really do tell us something about their distances. One other bright light stands directly below the Moon in early evening, and it’s the brightest of all: Venus, the “evening star.” Right now, it’s closer to us than anything else except the Moon.

Nossa professora Danda analisa as raízes mitológicas que fundamentam a obra. Discutimos como o autor Masami Kurumada utilizou, muitas vezes de forma intuitiva, conceitos profundos da mitologia greco-romana e do hinduísmo para estruturar seus personagens. Abordamos a evolução histórica de figuras como Minos e Poseidon, explicando que o mito é mutável e frequentemente adaptado para fins políticos ou pedagógicos. Além disso, debatemos a simbologia por trás de cavaleiros específicos, como Máscara da Morte e Aldebaran. Em suma, discutimos como a narrativa do anime reflete uma linguagem universal de arquétipos que transcendem a precisão acadêmica.

In this episode of Mining Stock Daily, we welcome John Black, CEO of both Regulus Resources and Aldebaran Resources, to discuss the adoption of shareholder rights plans across both companies. With rising metal prices and a noticeable uptick in M&A activity across the mining sector, Black explains why now is the right time to implement protective measures aimed at safeguarding long-term shareholder value. The conversation breaks down how these rights plans function, particularly the mechanism designed to prevent opportunistic accumulation of controlling stakes during a strengthening copper market cycle.

Just about every star is born in a cluster – a family of dozens to thousands of stars. Most of these families fall apart, with the individual stars going their own way. The Sun’s cluster, for example, dissipated billions of years ago. One cluster that’s in the process of dissipating is the Hyades, which outlines the face of Taurus, the bull. It’s the nearest cluster, at a distance of about 150 light-years. Today, the Hyades contains several hundred stars – probably less than half its original population. The other stars were pulled away by the gravitational tug of the rest of the galaxy. The cluster’s heaviest stars reside in its tightly packed center. None of them is much more than about twice as massive as the Sun. That’s because of the cluster’s age – 625 million years. All of its heavier stars have already burned out. All that remains is their dead cores. The least-massive stars have migrated to the outskirts of the cluster. Over the next few hundred million years, those stars will all drift away. That will leave only a sad little remnant of this impressive family of stars. The Hyades stands to the lower left of the Moon this evening. Its stars form a “V” shape. The brightest star in the outline is bright orange Aldebaran, the bull’s eye. But it’s not a member of the cluster – it simply lines up in the same direction as the stars of the Hyades. We’ll have more about the Moon and Taurus tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield

A new study published in Geophysical Research Letters reveals that blocks of frozen carbon dioxide are the culprits behind these formations. When the Martian winter sets in, CO2 ice accumulates and, upon warming, sublimates, creating gas pressure that carves deep gullies in the Martian surface. This groundbreaking phenomenon, likened to the sandworms of Dune, showcases a unique geological process not observed on Earth.Inside-Out Planetary System DiscoveryAstronomers have identified a remarkable new planetary system, catalogued as LHS 1903, that defies conventional models of planetary formation. Unlike our solar system, which features rocky planets close to the star and gas giants further out, LHS 1903 has a small rocky planet orbiting outside of two gas giants. This discovery, detailed in Science, suggests that this rocky world may have formed in a gas-depleted environment, challenging existing theories about how planets evolve and raising questions about the nature of planetary systems.Europe's Powerful Rocket LaunchThe European Space Agency has successfully launched the Ariane 64, its most powerful rocket to date, from the Kourou Spaceport in French Guiana. This inaugural mission, VA267, carried 32 satellites into orbit for Amazon's LEO network, marking a significant milestone as the largest number of satellites ever launched by an Ariane rocket. With plans for an average of 10 launches per year, the Ariane 64 is set to play a crucial role in the future of satellite deployment.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesGeophysical Research Letters, ScienceSupport our podcast: Become a supporter.

The surface of Ariel looks like a sheet of paper that’s been loosely crumpled. It’s covered with ridges, wrinkles, and gashes. That may be telling us that Ariel once had a deep ocean of liquid water. Ariel is one of the larger moons of the planet Uranus. It’s about 720 miles in diameter – a third the size of our moon. It orbits just a hundred thousand miles from the planet – much closer than the Moon is to Earth. It’s roughly a 50-50 mix of ice and rock. Our only good look at Ariel came in 1986. Voyager 2 flew past it and photographed about a third of its surface. The pictures revealed a complex face. It has a mixture of old and young craters, deep ridges, and smooth plains that might have been paved by water gurgling up from inside the moon. A recent study modeled the orbit of Ariel over the ages. It found that the orbit was once much more lopsided than it is today. As Ariel moved in and out, the gravity of Uranus stretched and squeezed the little moon. That could have melted some of the ice inside it, creating an ocean a hundred miles deep, topped by a thin crust of ice. The stress of all the stretching and squeezing could have cracked the ice, creating the wrinkly surface we see today. Uranus is high overhead at nightfall. It’s below the Pleiades star cluster, and farther to the right of the bright orange star Aldebaran. Through good binoculars, the planet looks like a faint star. Script by Damond Benningfield

The Moon is a tale of two faces. The side we see – the nearside – features giant volcanic plains and a fairly thin crust. The far side features more mountains and craters and much thicker crust. And the differences might go even deeper. The layer below the crust – the mantle – might be cooler on the farside – or was cooler billions of years ago. That difference is suggested by samples returned to Earth by a Chinese lander – the first samples from the farside. Some of the samples formed from molten rock. It cooled and solidified 2.8 billion years ago, deep inside the Moon. Details about the samples suggest the molten rock was much cooler than the same layer on the nearside – by about 200 degrees Fahrenheit. That’s probably because the far side has fewer radioactive elements, which heat the interior as they decay. Just why that’s the case isn’t clear. A smaller moon might have splatted into the lunar farside when the Moon was young. Or a giant asteroid impact might have moved things around. The pull of Earth’s gravity might have played a role as well. Whatever the cause, there’s a big difference in the lunar hemispheres – which may be more than skin deep. The gibbous Moon is passing through the constellation Taurus tonight. Aldebaran, the bull’s eye, is to the right of the Moon at nightfall. And Elnath, at the tip of one of the bull’s horns, is closer to the lower left of the Moon. Script by Damond Benningfield

A look at the evening sky is a nice way to wrap up your Christmas. It features the Moon, two bright planets, and some of the brighter stars in all the night sky. As twilight drains from the sky, the Moon is well up in the southwest. The Sun lights up more than a quarter of the lunar hemisphere that faces our way, so it’s a fat crescent. It’s waxing toward first quarter, on Saturday. The planet Saturn is to the upper left of the Moon, and looks like a bright star. It shines so brightly for a couple of reasons: It’s the second-largest planet in the solar system – more than nine times the diameter of Earth – and it’s topped by clouds that reflect much of the sunlight that strikes them. The only planet that’s bigger than Saturn is Jupiter, and it climbs into good view, in the east-northeast, by 7 or 7:30. In all the night sky right now, only the Moon outshines it. The “twin” stars of Gemini – Pollux and Castor – stand to Jupiter’s left and upper left. At the same time, the brilliant constellation Orion is off to the upper right of Jupiter. Look for its three-star belt aiming straight up from the horizon, flanked by orange Betelgeuse and blue-white Rigel. Taurus perches well above Orion. It’s marked by its bright orange eye, Aldebaran. And the Dog Star, Sirius, climbs into good view by 8 or 8:30, below Orion’s Belt. It’s the brightest true star in the night sky – a beautiful decoration for Christmas night.

In this episode, we perceive a unique technique to appease a person’s ire, as depicted in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 136, penned by Vitrootru Mootheyinanaar. The verse is situated amidst the decorated mansions and bejewelled denizens of the ‘Marutham’ or ‘Farmlands landscape’ and etches the events in an ancient wedding ceremony. மைப்பு அறப் புழுக்கின் நெய்க் கனி வெண் சோறுவரையா வண்மையொடு புரையோர்ப் பேணி,புள்ளுப் புணர்ந்து இனிய ஆக, தெள் ஒளிஅம் கண் இரு விசும்பு விளங்க, திங்கட்சகடம் மண்டிய துகள் தீர் கூட்டத்து,கடி நகர் புனைந்து, கடவுட் பேணி,படு மண முழவொடு பரூஉப் பணை இமிழ,வதுவை மண்ணிய மகளிர் விதுப்புற்று,பூக்கணும் இமையார் நோக்குபு மறைய,மென் பூ வாகைப் புன் புறக் கவட்டிலை,பழங் கன்று கறித்த பயம்பு அமல் அறுகைத்தழங்குகுரல் வானின் தலைப்பெயற்கு ஈன்றமண்ணு மணி அன்ன மாஇதழ்ப் பாவைத்தண் நறு முகையொடு வெண் நூல் சூட்டி,தூ உடைப் பொலிந்து மேவரத் துவன்றி,மழை பட்டன்ன மணல் மலி பந்தர்,இழை அணி சிறப்பின் பெயர் வியர்ப்பு ஆற்றி,தமர் நமக்கு ஈத்த தலைநாள் இரவின்,”உவர் நீங்கு கற்பின் எம் உயிர் உடம்படுவி!முருங்காக் கலிங்கம் முழுவதும் வளைஇ,பெரும் புழுக்குற்ற நின் பிறைநுதற் பொறி வியர்உறு வளி ஆற்றச் சிறு வரை திற” எனஆர்வ நெஞ்சமொடு போர்வை வவ்வலின்,உறை கழி வாளின் உருவு பெயர்ந்து இமைப்ப,மறை திறன் அறியாள்ஆகி, ஒய்யெனநாணினள் இறைஞ்சியோளே பேணி,பரூஉப் பகை ஆம்பற் குரூஉத் தொடை நீவி,சுரும்பு இமிர் ஆய்மலர் வேய்ந்தஇரும் பல் கூந்தல் இருள் மறை ஒளித்தே. Though we don’t actually get to travel to the outer spaces of this domain in this verse, we get a sense of the culture here, as we listen to the man say these words to his heart, when the lady is in the midst of a fight with him, as she listens nearby: “The cooked white rice, having flawless pieces of meat, brimming with ghee, was rendered with limitless hospitality and guests were welcomed. Sounds of birds uniting echoed sweetly in the air; The beautiful dark sky shined with a clear light, and at this time, the moon and the wheel-shaped star come together in a perfect union; The wedding home was decorated and god's praises were sung; As the thick and huge ‘panai' drums resounded, along with ‘muzhavu' wedding drums, the women who bathed her as part of the wedding ceremony, not blinking their flower-like eyes, quickly vanished; The delicate-bottomed forked leaves of the Lebbeck tree, with soft flowers, and the cool and fragrant buds of the huge-petaled flower, in the hue of well-washed sapphires, blossoming in the sky's first rains, upon the wild ‘arukai' grass, spreading in the crevices, and grazed upon by mature calves, are tied together with a white thread, and adorned on her, along with pristine clothes. Then coming together with affection, in that sand-filled pavilion, resounding with the sound of falling rain, wiping away the sweat that runs down, because of heavy jewels worn, her kith and kin rendered her to me. On the night of this first day together, saying to her, “O maiden, who is the form to my life, filled with blemish-less chastity! As you have covered your form entire with a thick attire, feeling rather hot, your crescent-moon-like forehead would be coated in beads of sweat. Letting the flowing breeze to cool it, why not remove it?”, with a desiring heart, I pulled away the cover, and there she was, shining akin to a sword, pulled out from its sheath. Without knowing how to hide herself, she was overcome with shyness and bent her head. Understanding her state, I came to her aid and removed the radiant, thick white-lily garland, which was like a foe to her, just then, spreading her thick and black, bee-buzzing tresses, filled with beautiful flowers, and with that cover of darkness, helped her hide herself!” Let’s participate in this ancient farmlands wedding and learn more! The man simply takes a walk down memory lane, recollecting the day of his wedding with his lady. He remembers the pots of rice and meat, cooked with ghee, and served to guests ceaselessly. He talks about how the sweet sounds of birds uniting resounded in the air. The man then talks about how the moon was supposed to be coming close to and uniting with a star in a wheel-shaped constellation, that day. Interpreters have identified this particular star to be ‘Rohini’, also known as the Aldebaran star, said to be the ‘eye’ of the Taurus constellation, in another astronomical classification. There have been numerous mythological stories about the connection between this star and the moon, and here too, we encounter one such belief in Sangam culture that the coming together of these two celestial bodies was an auspicious moment for a couple to begin their journey together. Returning, the man turns his attention to the wedding decorations in the home, praising god, and the resounding roar of wedding drums many. The lady was given a ceremonial bath from maiden and then she was adorned with flowers of the Arukai grass and leaves of the Vaakai tree, atop glowing clothes. After dressing the bride so, the lady’s kith and kin, wiping away the sweat, owing to wearing heavy ornaments, offered the lady to the man, and formalised their union. From these festivities, the man turns to a personal moment between him and the lady on their first night together, when he observes her covering herself in a thick attire. He seems to have pulled it away, so that the beads of sweat on the lady’s forehead would be dried by the cool breeze. As he pulled the cover apart, the lady appeared like a sword out of sheath, glowing, the man recounts. At that moment, she seemed to have been filled with shyness and without knowing how to cover herself, she had bent her head. The man seems to have come to her aid and removed the clasp of her white-lily garland and turned the darkness of her thick, black tresses as her new attire, he concludes.  We know the man and lady had been fighting. The man had been trying many attempts to appease her but to no avail. He finally chooses the strategy of talking about a happy, delightful moment, in their early years, to take the lady to the past, reminding her of who she had been to the man, and make her forget the present moment of conflict. Though we do not know whether the man’s strategy worked out for him, on our part, we got to go to an ancient Tamil wedding, feast our senses with food and festivity and delight in the many glimpses of plenty and prosperity of this domain!

Stars like the Sun go through several distinct phases of life, from embryo to corpse. Consider Aldebaran, the bright eye of Taurus, which accompanies the Moon tonight. It’s more than six billion years old – older than the Sun. And it’s well into “old age.” Aldebaran was born when a cloud of gas and dust collapsed. For millions of years, it shined as a result of the heat generated by that collapse – its “embryonic” phase. Eventually, its core got hot enough to ignite the fires of nuclear fusion, and Aldebaran entered the prime phase of life – fusing hydrogen to make helium. A few hundred million years ago, it used up the hydrogen in the core. The core got smaller and hotter, and Aldebaran began fusing the hydrogen in a shell around the core. At the same time, its outer layers puffed up, so Aldebaran is more than 40 times wider than the Sun. This is the giant phase of life. Eventually, the core will get hot enough to fuse the helium to make carbon and oxygen. But when the helium is gone, fusion will stop. The core will get smaller and hotter, and its radiation will push the star’s outer layers into space. Only the hot, dead core will remain – a white dwarf. Even that isn’t the end, though. The white dwarf will cool and fade. Hundreds of billions of years from now – and perhaps much longer – it’ll stop producing any visible light at all. That will make it a black dwarf – the final stage for the eye of the bull. Script by Damond Benningfield

An embryonic star may be about to vanish – perhaps for a century. It’s not going anywhere. Instead, it’ll be cloaked by a dense cloud that encircles two companions. T Tauri is the prototype for a class of proto-stars. The gravity of such a star is causing it to collapse, making it hot and bright. But its core isn’t hot enough to ignite the fires of nuclear fusion, so it’s not yet a true star. The star we see as T Tauri is about twice as massive as the Sun. It’s encircled by a disk of gas and dust – the raw materials for making planets. And it might already have given birth to at least one planet. T Tauri is a member of a triple-star system. Its companion stars are close together, encircled by their own disk. It’s so thick that it hides the stars at visible wavelengths – we see them only in the infrared. Now, the companions and their disk are starting to slide between us and the brighter star. The star has faded a good bit in recent years. Eventually, it may be hidden behind the disk as well. And it could take a century for the disk to move out of the way – allowing the brightest star of the T Tauri system to shine through once more. Taurus is low in the east and southeast by late evening. T Tauri is just above Aldebaran, the bull’s brightest star, far to the lower left of the bright Moon. The young star is visible through a telescope – for now. More about the Moon and the bull tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield

The bull is charging into the evening sky. Taurus is in full view by about 11 o’clock, low in the east. He stands high in the south before dawn. He’s rising earlier each night, and will be in view all night long by about Thanksgiving. All the stars rise four minutes earlier each night – a result of Earth’s motion around the Sun. Earth makes one full turn on its axis against the background of distant stars every 23 hours and 56 minutes. So, if you looked at the sky every 23 hours and 56 minutes, and you could see through the daytime glare, you’d always see the same stars in the same position. But during that period, Earth moves along its orbit around the Sun. The distance it covers means the planet has to turn four extra minutes for the Sun to reach the same position in the sky. That makes a day 24 hours long. And it also means that the background stars rise and set four minutes earlier on our 24-hour clock. As a result, every star and constellation is in prime evening view at different times of the year. For Taurus, it’s fall and early winter – the time the bull charges across the evening sky. For now, look for Taurus beginning in late evening. Its brightest star is Aldebaran, the bull’s eye. His face is outlined by a V-shaped pattern of stars to the upper right of Aldebaran. And his shoulder is the sparkly little Pleiades star cluster, well above Aldebaran. More about Taurus tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield

Hosted by Chris Beckett & Shane Ludtke, two amateur astronomers in Saskatchewan. actualastronomy@gmail.com Episode 500! The Actual Astronomy Podcast presents Constellation Taurus. In this episode Chris and Shane celebrate their 500th episode by exploring all the nebulae and star clusters in Taurus.    Taurus the Bull charges, head down toward Orion. The unmistakable V-shaped pattern marks the Hyades, catalogued as Melotte 25; this is the nearest open cluster at 153 light-years. First-magnitude Aldebaran burns red as the eye of the bull, but it is an accidental member being almost three times closer.   We also read a few listener emails and answer a question about observing in the snow! - Dan from Switzerland: Dear Chris! Thanks for the compliment on my lunar sketch! - Question from Corey: After having a conversation with a colleague, an interesting question came up: how does snow affect the sky quality? Does the extra albeido of the white landscape bump up the bortle scale a notch or two?   Please subscribe and share the show with other stargazers you know and send us show ideas, observations and questions to actualastronomy@gmail.com   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

In this episode of Mining Stock Daily, John Black from Aldebaran Resources discusses the company's strategic decision to spin out a portfolio of non-priority properties into a new Argentine-focused exploration company. This new entity, led by CEO Sam Leong, aims to unlock value from projects like Rio Grande, a copper-gold porphyry system, and Aguas Calientes, a silver-gold epithermal project, which were previously undervalued within Aldebaran's portfolio. Current Aldebaran shareholders are expected to receive shares in this new public company, allowing them to realize value from these projects. Additionally, Black provides an update on the Altar Preliminary Economic Assessment, explaining its delay to Q4 due to an extended review process involving Rio Tinto's proprietary primary sulfite heap leach technology

We have new drill results out from Aldebaran's infill work at Altar. New exploration results from Talisker's Mustang Mine and Snowline's Rogue Project. American Pacific provided an update on Palmer.

An astronomical trio lines up low in the east at first light tomorrow. Two of its members are easy to pick out: Venus, the brilliant “morning star,” with the true star Aldebaran close to its right. But to see the third member, you need to pull out your binoculars. NGC 1647 is just to the right of Venus, much closer than Aldebaran is. It’s a star cluster – a tightly packed family of hundreds of stars. Most of the cluster’s details are a bit fuzzy, though. Estimates of its age, distance, and the number of stars vary by quite a bit. In part, that’s because the cluster is behind a cloud of dust, which absorbs some of its light. But it’s also because NGC 1647 hasn’t received a lot of attention. Measurements put the cluster’s distance at about 1800 to 2,000 light-years. One study said the cluster has at least 600 member stars, while another puts the number at 1300 or more. And estimates of its age range from about 120 million years to more than 260 million. Based on the structure of NGC 1647, it appears that no matter how old it is, it may not last much longer. The cluster may be losing its grip on the stars outside its dense core. The stars are being pulled away by the gravitational tug of the rest of the galaxy. Soon, many of them could drift away – leaving a much smaller family of stars. Tomorrow: shaking hands. Script by Damond Benningfield

When it comes to the night sky, what you see isn’t necessarily what you get. Consider Venus and Aldebaran, which are low in the east at first light. Venus is the brilliant “morning star.” Aldebaran stands directly below Venus, and shines just one percent as bright. But their apparent brightness is the only way in which Venus outranks Aldebaran. Venus is a planet in our own solar system – a little smaller and less massive than Earth. It’s so brilliant because it’s close to both Earth and the Sun, and because it’s covered in bright clouds. Aldebaran, on the other hand, is a true star – and an impressive one at that. It’s heavier than the Sun, about 45 times wider, and more than 400 times brighter. Compared to that, Venus is a bare speck – a flake of cosmic jetsam. Aldebaran is almost half a million times more massive and 5,000 times wider – so big that you could pack more than a hundred billion Venuses into its great bulk. So Aldebaran appears fainter than Venus only because of its greater distance – almost four million times farther than the morning star. Look for this mismatched pair beginning a couple of hours before sunrise the next few mornings. Venus will slide to the lower left, and will stand side by side with Aldebaran on Wednesday. They’ll pull apart after that, with Venus dropping a little lower in the sky day by day, and Aldebaran climbing a little higher. Script by Damond Benningfield

John Black, CEO of Aldebaran Resources, discusses the recent drill results from the Altar Project in Argentina. He provides insights into the objectives of the drill program, the current mineral resource estimates, and the significance of infill drilling. The conversation also touches on the investment incentives available in Argentina, particularly the Rigi protocol, and the positive economic outlook for the country amidst global geopolitical challenges.

Mining Stock Daily interviews John Black, CEO of Aldebaran Resources, providing an update on the Altar project in Argentina. The discussion covers the progress of drilling operations, the upcoming preliminary economic assessment (PEA), and the regulatory and economic landscape in Argentina. John highlights the importance of resource conversion and the strategic decisions being made to ensure a robust PEA, while also addressing the implications of recent economic developments in Argentina.

The Moon is taking a journey through time the next couple of nights. It’s crossing the constellation Taurus. It’ll pass close to several of the bull’s most prominent features, plus another visitor – the planet Jupiter. Jupiter looks like a brilliant star well to the upper left of the Moon. The bull’s brightest stars, Aldebaran and Elnath, line up below and above Jupiter. And the Pleiades star cluster is close below the Moon. These objects are at different distances from Earth, so we see them as they looked at different points in time. That’s because light travels at a limited speed. It’s a high speed – 670 million miles per hour. But cosmic distances are so vast that it takes a long time to cross them. The Moon is our closest neighbor, so moonlight takes only about one and a third seconds to reach Earth. Jupiter also is in our own solar system, so it’s quite close by astronomical standards. Right now, it takes about 45 minutes for its light to reach Earth. The stars are much, much farther. Aldebaran is about 65 light-years away, so its light takes 65 years to reach us. Elnath is twice as far, so its light headed our way in the late 1800s. And the Pleiades is farther still. Its hundreds of stars are at different distances. But the average is about 445 light-years. So the light you see from the Pleiades tonight began its journey in the 1500s. More about the Moon and Jupiter tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield

The poles of the giant planet Jupiter look like works of art: They resemble “The Starry Night” by Vincent Van Gogh. Light-colored whirlpools spin through a dark background. There’s one whirlpool at the center of each pole, with a ring of whirlpools around it. These beautiful spirals are cyclones – giant storms much like tropical storms on Earth. And they’re powered by the same process as those on Earth: Warm, humid air rises higher into the atmosphere, where it cools and condenses to form clouds. Jupiter’s rotation deflects the rising air, making the system spin. But the Jovian storms are much bigger than those on Earth – the largest are the size of continents. Their winds max out at more than 200 miles per hour. Jupiter’s north pole has nine storms – one in the middle, with a ring of eight around it. They’re all about the same size. And the configuration appears to be stable. Other cyclones try to push their way in, but they’re blocked by the existing storms. The south pole has only six of the cyclones – five storms encircling the one at the pole. They’re much bigger than the storms at the north pole. An extra storm pushed into the ring a few years ago, but it was ejected – leaving Jupiter’s south pole with a sextet of cyclones. Jupiter is close to the upper left of the Moon at nightfall, and looks like a brilliant star. The true star Aldebaran, the eye of the bull, is farther to the Moon’s lower left. Script by Damond Benningfield

Two bright orange stars pass high across the south this evening: Betelgeuse, at the shoulder of Orion the hunter; and Aldebaran, the eye of the bull, well to its upper right. An even redder star perches below Orion’s feet, although you need binoculars or a telescope to see it. Hind’s Crimson Star is one of the most remarkable stars in the galaxy. It pulses in and out like a beating heart. Each beat changes the star’s size by tens of millions of miles. The star is quite near the end of its life. It no longer produces nuclear reactions in its core, although it does produce them in a thin shell around the core. At a minimum, Hind’s Crimson Star is hundreds of times wider than the Sun. But the star is unstable. The energy from the shell around the core heats the star’s outer layers, causing them to puff up. As these layers expand, they cool, then fall inward again. Each cycle takes about 14 months. The surface of the star is so cool that it shines reddish orange. But that’s not the only reason for its color. A lot of carbon has been dredged from its interior and pulled to the surface. The carbon absorbs blue light, enhancing the red. Some of the carbon and other elements are being blown into space, forming a cloud of dust grains around the star. Eventually, the star’s outer layers will all blow away, leaving only its hot, dense core – a tiny stellar corpse known as a white dwarf. Script by Damond Benningfield

The gibbous Moon passes across a special spot tonight. It lines up opposite the center of the Milky Way Galaxy – the galactic anti-center. In that direction, we’re looking toward the rim of the galaxy’s disk. The rim is about 25,000 light-years away, with intergalactic space beyond. The center of the galaxy is in Sagittarius. When we look in that direction we stare into thick clouds of stars, along with dark clouds of dust – places where more stars are being born. But when we look in the opposite direction the view is much less impressive. There aren’t as many stars or dust clouds. And the stars thin out as you get closer to the rim. Beyond that, we’re looking into the galaxy’s “halo” – a region that extends hundreds of thousands of light-years into space. It contains a few giant star clusters, and a smattering of individual stars. Almost all of them are ancient – dating to the earliest days of the Milky Way itself. And beyond the halo, there’s not much at all – some wisps of gas, and an occasional star or free-ranging planet. It’s millions of light-years to the next galaxy – through the vastness of intergalactic space. The closest star to the anticenter is Elnath, the second-brightest star of Taurus. It marks the tip of one of the bull’s horns. It’s just above the Moon at nightfall. The brilliant planet Jupiter and the star Aldebaran – the bull’s eye – stand farther to the right or upper right of the Moon. Script by Damond Benningfield
