So prominent in the night sky lately is the nearly full Hunter’s moon. The moon in our sky, and the moons of Jupiter are the star features of this week’s program, since La Luna’s light drowns that of most other celestial objects. Host, researcher, and producer is Kathleen Fleming. StarDate Susitna is a regular winter segment of KTNA’s locally produced Earth and Beyond program. Audio is 9 min 45 seconds.
