    St. Louis

    April 18, 2022 / No Comments

    Also known as the "Gateway to the West," St. Louis is an iconic American city. Just picture the Gateway Arch and you're thinking of St. Louis. Add in good sports teams, great craft beer, and good music – they say "beer, baseball, and the Blues" referring to both the music genre and hockey team – and you've got a perfect recipe for a great Midwest city. But can you go stargazing in St. Louis?...

    After several slow months of meteoric activity, it's finally here: the first major meteor shower of the year, the Lyrids! It's the first good opportunity of the calendar year when you can see shooting stars streak across the night sky burning up as they enter earth’s atmosphere. That’s right: it’s almost time for the peak of the 2022 Lyrids meteor shower!...

    There are a few places in the United States that are just spectacular for stargazing.

    When most people think of stargazing with equipment, the first thing that comes to mind is a telescope. This certainly makes sense, as telescopes have a much greater range of use and can be made to peer much further into deep space. However binoculars should not be overlooked, especially for beginners who might not want to invest a ton or feel comfortable switching to an entirely new piece of equipment that's only useful at night...

    For a place with death in its name, Death Valley National Park is surprisingly full of life. Vegetation persists even in the driest, harshest climates; birds, bats, and bugs thrive in their little niches within the ecosystem; there are even springs and creeks where vegetation and animals flourish in the hottest place on earth. And that's all just describing the daytime – Death Valley is more full of life at night, when cooler temperatures bring animals out of holes where they escape the heat all day and stars whirl overhead...
