Host and producer Kathleen Fleming covers a lot of ground (space) in her probably second-to-the-last StarDate Susitna for the season. We hear about the waning crescent moon, the young moon challenge coming up Sunday, the travels of Mars and Saturn, a discussion of twilight, how to watch the Lyrid meteor shower, and how to get solar shades (locally)  for a couple of daytime events that you won’t want to miss in the upcoming couple months: the partial solar eclipse, and the transit of Venus. Audio is 10 min 29 sec.
