Under Alien Skies by Bruce Betts

Bruce Betts, the chief scientist of the Planetary Society is here for What's Up and an opportunity to win a copy of Under Alien Skies in our space trivia contest. On April 22nd, everyone without a cloudy sky can see the crescent moon hanging out near Venus making a beautiful pairing over there in the west in the early evening. You can start staring at the Lared's meteor shower that peaks on the 22nd and 23rd as kind of a medium middle of the road average kind of meteor shower. Just throw in April 25th to the moon is near Mars which is getting dimmer up higher in the sky than Venus. All the Mars is starting to drop too.
