Podcasts about lyrid meteor shower

Can the world be as strange as it seems, well as the year 2025 reveals itself it appears to be getting stranger and stranger with every day. Jay and Aspasia discuss the anomalies surrounding two major events, Europe's largest and worst blackout and the Lyrid Meteor Shower. Is there and explanation behind this high strangeness? Jay recently stumbled onto the profound work of Michael Talbot and his book The Holographic Universe in which some of the answers may lie.Michael Talbot Thinking Aloud Linkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGeGHLIpgvU&t=4908s&ab_channel=NevilleGoddardAngry Astronaut Linkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uO0Dl7r5-Pg&ab_channel=TheAngryAstronaut

The first meteor shower in over three months is about to send shooting stars streaking across the night sky, an event visible around the globe—weather permitting. The peak of the Lyrid meteor shower will occur on the night of Monday, April 21, into the early morning of Tuesday, April 22.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Emmy Wisz an astronomy research fellow at the Maria Mitchell Association discusses this week that the annual Lyrid Meteor Shower will peak early next week, putting on a show all night for the next week.

April 2024: Finally the month of the eclipse! A wonderful experience for North America, the Lyrid Meteor Shower, and lots of planetary action makes April of 2024 one of THE best months in a LONG time.   I'm Rob Webb, your Last Minute Astronomer, bringing astronomy to normies and nerds, with little time to spare. As usual, we'll start by talking about where the naked eye planets are this month, move on to the lunar phases, and finish up with a calendar of events, so you can plan ahead better than me.    Last Quarter Moon – 1st (Visible midnight into the morning) Morning Crescents (look East in the AM) New Moon – 8th (darkest skies) Evening Crescents (look West after Sunset) First Quarter Moon – 15th (Visible until midnight) Evening Gibbous (Mostly lit, after Sunset) Full Moon – 23rd (Visible all night) Waning Gibbous (Mostly lit, rises later at night)   5th - 6th – CLOSE ENCOUNTER – Moon, Mars, Saturn – Get out between 5:30am and 6:30am and get a very clear look at the ESE horizon. During that hour, you should be able to see the Moon as a VERY thin crescent, with Saturn bright and 14 ̊ to the left of the Moon, with Mars up and to the right of Saturn a little bit. Then, on the 6th, the Moon will move to be below both Saturn and Mars, making a thin triangle.   8th – TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE – We're going to skip over that, not because it's not important. I've been preparing for it for 6 years now. But we've had PLENTY of coverage of it so far and there are better places to give you more information that you're looking for. In fact, I'll link some videos I've created or participated in for better info.   10th – CLOSE ENCOUNTER – Mars, Saturn – Get out again between 5:30am and 6:30am and get a very clear look at the ESE. Mars and Saturn will be as close as they're gonna get, about ½˚ apart, with Mars on top. It'll be tough to see, all that more rewarding when you do.    10th – CLOSE ENCOUNTER – Moon, Jupiter – Get out after sunset, look W, and the Moon will be only 4˚ to the right of Jupiter.     22nd – LYRID METEOR SHOWER – At only 10-20 meteors per hour, it is a minor shower, and we have essentially a Full Moon to get massively in the way of observing. The shower is greatest on the 22nd, but you might see some on the 21st and 23rd as well. Just remember each meteor is a piece of debris left over from a comet, and we're crashing into it at over 100,000 miles per hour, which crushes the atmosphere it hits, heating it up and causing the bright flash. There is no real best time to see these this year, but you never know when you'll see something awesome.  Some advice for watching:  - Find a dark location and lie down in a reclining chair or something that insulates you from the ground. - Check the weather to see if the skies will be clear  - Adapt your eyes to the dark by staying away from light sources or using a red light if you need to look at a star chart or not trip over something.     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!

Hosted by Chris Beckett & Shane Ludtke, two amateur astronomers in Saskatchewan. actualastronomy@gmail.com The Actual Astronomy Podcast presents The Observer's Calendar for April 2024. In this episode we'll talk about the possible Nova of T-Corona Borealis, Mars, Saturn and Moon forming a Triangle in the Eastern Sky, the April 8th Solar Eclipse. Chris and Shane also discuss the Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks but since recording both have viewed it in binoculars.   April 1 - Zodiacal light visible in West for next 2 weeks. April 2 - Last quarter Moon April 6 - Mars, Saturn and Moon form a Triangle in East at dawn April 7- International Dark Sky Week April 8 - Total Solar Eclipse April 10 - Jupiter and Uranus 4-degrees below the Moon this evening April 11 - Morning Mars, Saturn Pleiades - 0.5 degrees for somewhere...I think they are farther here. April 15 - First Quarter Moon - Lunar X visible Near Crater Werner for all of North America April 16 - Lunar Straight Wall visible April 19 & 20 - Jupiter and Uranus 0.5 degrees apart. April 22 - Lyrid Meteor Shower is spoiled by the  Full Moon on the 23rd   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!

Tonight I was watching the Lyrid Meteor Shower (only two shooting stars spotted so far) and felt like sharing a little something different. I hope you enjoy this. The audio is a bit worse cause I recorded on my phone on my roof impromptu. Hope you catch what I was trying to do... For those that have submitted some requests I have Janna and Lillia on the way.

After three months of what people call the meteor drought, the annual Lyrid meteor shower comes to a peak this week.

Join Michele Woodland of the Maria Mitchell Association as she discusses the Lyrid Meteor shower. The Lyrid Meteor Shower will last from approximately April 15th to April 29th, peaking the evenings of the 21st and 22nd. The most meteors will be visible between midnight and dawn, but meteors can be seen as early as 9pm. 

On this episode, we look at NASA's plans to land humans on the Red Planet from the Apollo era through today, and SpaceX's parallel initiatives with the Starship mega-rocket. Which program will be the first to be Mars-capable? Also, a comet the size of Rhode Island heading our way, a cry for help to ET, and a meteor shower is happening.

A “skinny” meteor shower should be at its best tonight. The Lyrid shower turns up every year at this time, and has for at least 2700 years. But the number of meteors is pretty low — about 10 to 20 per hour. In part, that's because the object that supplies the Lyrids is a long way away. Lyrid meteors are bits of debris from Comet C/1861 G1 Thatcher. When the comet comes near the Sun, some of its ice vaporizes. That releases bits of rock and dirt into space. Over time, they spread out along the comet's orbit. Earth flies through that trail of comet dust every April. Some of the particles ram into the atmosphere and vaporize, forming meteors. A meteor shower is most intense around the time its parent body is closest to the Sun, when it releases fresh debris into space. For Comet Thatcher, that last happened in 1861 — the year it was discovered. Today, the comet is about 10 billion miles from the Sun and moving outward. It'll be farthest in a few decades. Then it'll turn around and head sunward, with its closest approach around the year 2276 — when skywatchers may see some great displays of Lyrid meteors. For now, check out the shower beginning in late evening, as the meteor stream begins to rotate into view. The window is short because the Moon will rise about 2 or 2:30. Its glare will overpower all but the brightest meteors — the offspring of a far-away comet.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

The Lyrid Meteor Shower kicks off International Dark Sky Week 2022. Get outside and let your soul bask in the radiant song of the stars

It is time to be on the lookout for falling stars, or should I say meteors for the next few weeks. That is because the Lyrid Meteor Shower, annually runs from April 16-25. The peak viewing period will come on the evening of April 22 and early morning of April 23 with perhaps 20 or so meteors per hour. The moon is going to interfere with some of the more faint meteors during the peak viewing period, but if the sky is clear, it will be worth taking a look.

Welcome to Observing With Webb, where a high school astronomy teacher tells you what you’re looking at, why it’s so cool, and what you should check out later this month…at night.  April of 2021 delivers a few mornings and a few evenings of lunar close encounters, as well as a meteor shower, as we stay up later to get those dark skies. April 22nd – LYRID METEOR SHOWER – 2021 is a decent year for the Lyrids, if you’re willing to get up in the morning to watch. At only 10-20 meteors per hour, it is a minor shower, and we have a Moon just past its 1st quarter, so it won’t get drowned out by moonlight…after 4am. You’ll still be able to see SOME meteors at night, but it’ll be better without the Moon’s light pollution.  So look North in general in the morning before dawn.  The shower is greatest on the 22nd, but you might see some on the 21st and 23rd as well. Just remember each meteor is piece of debris left over from a comet, and we’re crashing into it at over 100,000 miles per hour, which crushes the atmosphere it hits, heating it up and causing the bright flash. Some advice for watching: - Find a dark location and lie down in a reclining chair or something that insulates you from the ground. - Check the weather to see if the skies will be clear. - Adapt your eyes to the dark by staying away from light sources or using a red light if you need to look at a star chart or not trip over something.  - If you’re feeling extra nerdy, do a scientific meteor count (S&T and IMO).   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.

Sunset – Mars Mars (SW-->W) – Look SW and two-thirds of the way up the sky after sunset to find the non-twinkling reddish-orange dot, much brighter than everything around it, above Taurus in the beginning of the month and above Orion toward the end. Sets around midnight in the WNW. Throughout the night – None at the moment Morning – Saturn, Jupiter Saturn, Jupiter – The two gas giants are low in the SE, getting higher and rising earlier each day. Look SE in the morning (after 5am in the beginning of the month, after 3am by the end).  Jupiter will be on the left, with Saturn up and to the right about 15˚.    EVENTS... Waning Gibbous (Mostly lit, rises later at night) Last Quarter Moon – 4th (Visible from midnight into the morning) Morning Crescents (look East in the AM) New Moon – 11th (darkest skies) Evening Crescents (look West after Sunset) First Quarter Moon – 20th (Visible until midnight) Evening Gibbous (Mostly lit, after Sunset) Full Moon – 26th (Visible all night)   5th – 7th – Close Encounter – Moon, Saturn, Jupiter – Before sunrise in the SE, between 5am and 6am EDT on these mornings, a beautiful crescent Moon will be passing by our two biggest gas planets.  On the 5th, the Moon will be about 13˚ to the right of Saturn. On the next morning (the 6th) the Moon will be just 4˚ under Saturn.  Then on the 7th, our crescent Moon hangs out just 5˚ below Jupiter.   15th – 17th – Close Encounter – Moon, Mars, Pleiades, Taurus – Get out there between sunset and midnight to find the crescent Moon in the West right next to Taurus, with the Pleiades on the opposite side, and Mars far above.  On the 16th the Moon moves closer to Mars, leaving Taurus and the Pleiades behind.  Finally, on the 17th, the Moon is just 5˚above Mars.   22nd – LYRID METEOR SHOWER – 2021 is a decent year for the Lyrids, if you’re willing to get up in the morning to watch.  At only 10-20 meteors per hour, it is a minor shower, and we have a Moon just past its 1st quarter, so it won’t get drowned out by moonlight…after 4am.  You’ll still be able to see SOME meteors at night, but it’ll be better without the Moon’s light pollution.  So look North in general in the morning before dawn.  The shower is greatest on the 22nd, but you might see some on the 21st and 23rd as well.  Just remember each meteor is piece of debris left over from a comet, and we’re crashing into it at over 100,000 miles per hour, which crushes the atmosphere it hits, heating it up and causing the bright flash.

Check the weather to see if the skies will be clear Adapt your eyes to the dark by staying away from light sources or using a red light if you need to look at a star chart or not trip over something.  If you’re feeling extra nerdy, do a scientific meteor count (S&T and IMO)   CONSTELLATIONS... Use a sky map from www.skymaps.com to help you out. After Dinner: Leo, Orion & his winter companions – Leo will be high in the South, almost straight above you. It has a backward question mark with a right triangle to the left of the question mark. Also, take a moment to get your last glimpse Orion, Taurus, the Pleiades, Gemini, Auriga, and Canis Major off in the West. Before Bed: Big Dipper, Bootes – If you look above Leo, behind you and high in the sky, you should find the Big Dipper: seven very bright stars that form a spoon shape. Now if you take the handle of the Dipper, follow its curve to the next bright star you see, about 30˚ away, which is Arcturus. “Follow the arc to Arcturus.” That’s the brightest star in Bootes, which looks like a kite. Take that same curve, and follow it about another 20˚ to “speed on to Spica”, the brightest star in Virgo, one of my favorite constellations, since it reminds me of the Dickinson Mermaid. Before Work: Lyra, Hercules, Hercules Cluster – Look pretty much straight above you, and find the brightest star up there. You’ll notice a parallelogram attached to it. This is the brightest star Vega, part of the constellation Lyra, the harp. Next to that is a keystone shaped constellation called Hercules. On the right side of the keystone is a small cluster of stars known at the Hercules Cluster, which is a collection of hundreds of stars on the outskirts of our galaxy. Given how high it is in the sky right now, you might catch its faint fuzziness with your naked eye, but a set of binoculars or a small telescope will really help you see it.
