For those of you escaping the urban jungle this holiday weekend, pack a pair
of binoculars and surf the glorious Milky Way and all the dark nebulae in the vicinity. 

That's what Mojo and I did a couple weekends ago - dusk to dawn skywatching and
it was truly awe-inspiring!

The sky looked exactly like the images in this month's What's Up podcast.
In fact, nearly all the astrophotos in July's podcast were taken June 12-13 by Mojo
from our get-away astronomy location halfway between Indio and Blythe, 
just off the I-10.

Here's the new Solar System Exploration News and Events webpage, 
and from here you can get to the podcast and some blogs :-)

And take a stroll through all the new SSE web content too, we've spent
the better part of a year working on this new look!

Here's the JPL Youtube video page, too. http://is.gd/c3r1i
