Look Up! February 2021

Royal Observatory Greenwich Astronomers Bryony and Patricia are here to tell you what to look out for in the night sky for the start of 2021 in our family friendly Look Up! podcast. As well as this, they discuss some recent astronomical news. Patricia kicks off with an overview of some important space-related legislation that passed on December 31st of 2020 that aims to help preserve our heritage in space, and Bryony follows it up with some newly published research about the motion of stars in our galaxy, and how they appear to be following a pattern well-known to sports fans...
