robsiew Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but an interesting site nonetheless! I never knew what a "blue moon" was! http://spaceweather.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kls126s Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I usually check here - http://www.earthsky.org/ - and then click on the orange button that says "Tonight" in the upper right corner. You can click forward several days to see what's coming up. I've learned to recognize a lot of stars this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laboroflove Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I highly recommend subscribing to this email loop from NASA. http://nasascience.nasa.gov/about-us/email-updates They also have a Kids Club and free lesson plans on line, but with the email loops you get the most fascinating information and updates. You'll get all you were requesting, plus so much more! If you're in a Boy Scout or Girl Scout troop, try to arrange a sleepover at the NASA facilities. We live in Texas. It's one of my favorite educational, but so much fun memories with my older girls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pippen Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I just saw this article which lists nighttime sky highlights for 2010. I think I'm going to put them on my calendar. http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2010/01/04/2165357.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
