1
00:00:01.240 --> 00:00:05.000
<v Speaker 1>Welcome once again to the Doctor's Sky Experience, heard exclusively

2
00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:08.759
<v Speaker 1>here on Talk Radio seventy seven w ABC. As we

3
00:00:08.919 --> 00:00:11.400
<v Speaker 1>like to call it, the crown Jewel of radio, the

4
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:15.839
<v Speaker 1>iconic seventy seven Talk Radio WABC, beaming proudly out of

5
00:00:15.880 --> 00:00:19.120
<v Speaker 1>New York City, the Nation, the world, and the cosmos.

6
00:00:19.679 --> 00:00:22.600
<v Speaker 1>Sit back and enjoy. For the next few moments, we'll

7
00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:25.679
<v Speaker 1>be talking about month number three, March twenty twenty four,

8
00:00:26.120 --> 00:00:28.839
<v Speaker 1>as we begin the first of the series of sky

9
00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:32.920
<v Speaker 1>observation updates. We begin with Earth's nearest neighbor, the Moon,

10
00:00:33.280 --> 00:00:35.479
<v Speaker 1>and find out that the Moon reaches its last quarter

11
00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:38.399
<v Speaker 1>phase on the third of March, continuing to be a

12
00:00:38.399 --> 00:00:41.880
<v Speaker 1>waning slipper of moonlight. As the Moon comes closest to

13
00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:43.880
<v Speaker 1>the Earth for the month of March on the tenth,

14
00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:47.719
<v Speaker 1>we call that perigee, and then new Moon on the tenth.

15
00:00:47.719 --> 00:00:51.679
<v Speaker 1>Also then the beginning of lunation cycle twelve fifty two.

16
00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:55.280
<v Speaker 1>But just a quick reminder, the next major event in

17
00:00:55.359 --> 00:00:59.119
<v Speaker 1>astronomy is now almost less than one month away, the

18
00:00:59.200 --> 00:01:02.439
<v Speaker 1>Great Total solar eclipse here in the United States and

19
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:05.840
<v Speaker 1>Canada and a deep partial eclipse throughout much of the

20
00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:09.599
<v Speaker 1>listening area. The moon then continues to wax in the sky.

21
00:01:10.439 --> 00:01:13.400
<v Speaker 1>You'll see it rising high into the western part of

22
00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:16.439
<v Speaker 1>the sky just after sunset as it then races on

23
00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:19.599
<v Speaker 1>to its first quarter phase. On the seventeenth, we then

24
00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:21.599
<v Speaker 1>know that the moon turns its phase into what we

25
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:24.760
<v Speaker 1>call gibbous and that is egg shaped. The moon then

26
00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:27.879
<v Speaker 1>continues to move on to Apigee, or its farthest position

27
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:31.400
<v Speaker 1>away in month of March on the twenty third, all

28
00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:34.680
<v Speaker 1>to bring us another of the amazing full moons of

29
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:38.319
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty four that occurs on March the twenty fifth,

30
00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:42.359
<v Speaker 1>with the beautiful full worm moon and for keen eyed

31
00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:46.680
<v Speaker 1>observers here in North America, a slight penumbril lunar eclipse,

32
00:01:46.959 --> 00:01:50.159
<v Speaker 1>nothing to get too excited about, because panumber eclipses are

33
00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:53.760
<v Speaker 1>the outer shadow, that is the Earth, the Earth's outer shadow.

34
00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:56.200
<v Speaker 1>As the Moon moves through it, you might notice a

35
00:01:56.239 --> 00:01:59.280
<v Speaker 1>slight dimming of the Moon, but nothing like what's going

36
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:02.439
<v Speaker 1>to happen on a April eighth. All over the listening area,

37
00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:05.560
<v Speaker 1>a deep partial eclipse, and for those lucky enough to

38
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:07.959
<v Speaker 1>be in the shadow of the moon, a deep and

39
00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:13.000
<v Speaker 1>rare total solar eclipse. Did you know that Easter has

40
00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:16.439
<v Speaker 1>a big correlation, of course to the calendar and also

41
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:19.759
<v Speaker 1>the passover season two. We find out that this year,

42
00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:23.159
<v Speaker 1>in twenty twenty four, Easter occurs pretty early, that is

43
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:25.840
<v Speaker 1>March the thirty first. But why and how is the

44
00:02:25.919 --> 00:02:30.000
<v Speaker 1>date set? A long time ago astronomers and astrologers figured

45
00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:32.800
<v Speaker 1>this out. The date of Easter is set as the

46
00:02:32.840 --> 00:02:36.680
<v Speaker 1>first full moon after the vernal equinox, the beginning of spring.

47
00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:40.080
<v Speaker 1>So in this particular case, the vernal equinox occurs for

48
00:02:40.199 --> 00:02:43.599
<v Speaker 1>us on March the twentieth, and the next corresponding full

49
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:46.960
<v Speaker 1>moon would be that of the twenty fifth, the full

50
00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:50.400
<v Speaker 1>warm moon, and then the next Sunday after that would

51
00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:54.159
<v Speaker 1>be the date of Easter, March the thirty first, twenty

52
00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:57.439
<v Speaker 1>twenty four. Stay in touch with me, Doctor Sky as

<v Speaker 1>be seen and learned. As we open up people's minds

79
00:04:35.240 --> 00:04:38.560
<v Speaker 1>here on the Doctor Sky Experience, where on Talk Radio

80
00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:42.920
<v Speaker 1>seventy seven WABC, the crown jewel of radio, the iconic

81
00:04:43.240 --> 00:04:46.800
<v Speaker 1>seventy seven Talk Radio WABC, beaming out of New York City,

82
00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:50.240
<v Speaker 1>the nation, the world, and the cosmos. And quickly to

83
00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:53.000
<v Speaker 1>wrap it up, we find out that your evening planet

84
00:04:53.040 --> 00:04:56.000
<v Speaker 1>is still Jupiter, still high up into the western part

85
00:04:56.040 --> 00:05:00.759
<v Speaker 1>of the sky. As sunset rapidly approaches morning sky, we

86
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:04.879
<v Speaker 1>find Venus Saturn in Mars all together and clustering together

87
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:09.120
<v Speaker 1>in the morning sky just before dawn. Don't miss it.

88
00:05:09.319 --> 00:05:10.959
<v Speaker 1>Clear skies and good health.
