Sky Watch - how to enjoy the night skies about Petersfield in July

Welcome to 'Shine Sky Watch', a monthly summary of night sky events for stargazers in and around Petersfield. July; and it's holiday season in the 'Petersphere'! People are heading to the beaches, either here in the UK or overseas. Did you know there's an astronomical link to the tides? With July's Full Moon occurring on the 3rd, this is the first in a sequence of four 'Supermoons' and during the Summer season you can't miss the prominent asterism called the Summer Triangle, with Vega being one of the brightest stars in the whole sky. Find out more and make the most of our unique dark skies with Shine Radio written by Petersphere resident and astronomical expert Geoff Burt.  Listen to Sky Watch every month for magical star-gazing on your doorstep. Clear skies and happy stargazing!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
