- TONIGHT: "Go starhopping and find Taurus the Bull, the Seven Sisters, or The Pleiades star cluster in the east-northeast sky as it starts its nightly climb. In Hawaii, this appearance marked the beginning of a new year. The date was known as Makahiki. We find Grus the Crane on the southern horizon and explore a Southern Taurid meteor fireball with my friend Cindy Micheli near Lake Tahoe! We also go into folk and sky lore of the Iroquois Nation and check in on Comet Lemon and Comet 31/Atlas scorching past Mars now."
