There's always something going on in our night time skies and this month is no exception. From the Orionids meteor shower to Mars passing within 43 million miles of Earth, we'll train our eyes skyward and get the facts and the fiction on what astronomical things are happening in October. Laura's guests are Mal Cameron, Coordinator for the NASA Educator Resource Center at the Christa McAuliffe Planetarium, and John Gianforte, Astronomy instructor for the University System of New Hampshire's Granite State College, Co-founder of the Astronomical Society of Northern New England and monthly astronomy columnist for Foster's Daily Democrat.
