365 Days of Astronomy

Next year - 2009 - is the International Year of Astronomy. Lots and lots of great things are already under way for this year of astronomical celebrations. One exciting project is a daily 5-10 minute podcast named 365 Days of Astronomy. Unlike many podcasts, most episodes will be created by different people; you might have a US astronomy professor one day followed by a school group from India the next and an amateur astronomer from Japan the day after. Subscribe now and get ready for the first episode on January 1st. It is going to be great.

Comments: 365 Days of Astronomy

Why?

Posted by Aleks on Friday 10th Oct 2008 (15:15 UTC)

Why do it? Because it's informative and entertaining.

Why will it be great? We'll see, really, but I suspect that it will be a lot of fun to hear a wide range of topics by a wide range of people. The podcasts will all be 10 minutes or less, so the time commitment on the part of the listener is pretty small.
