Episode 2: Mars and Aldebaran

Release Date:

Chris and Mr Max are pleased to see Mars in the sky, finding the perfect location for an evening walk in a local park. We talk about colour, whether the red planet has little red plants on it, and compare it to nearby Aldebaran, the brightest star in the constellation of Taurus. Aldebaran also points us to the Hyades cluster, a nearby group of young stars. Enjoy your walk - and don't pee on the car!
You can find out when Mars is visible from where you are here at  in-the-sky.org, and read about Aldebaran here: https://www.skyatnightmagazine.com/advice/aldebaran/
While distracted, Chris describes the Hyades as a constellation a few times in this walk. It's a cluster, and he gets it right eventually, but Mr Max has been given extra bacon as an apology.
