sky watching

Continuing celestial activity coupled with favorable weather conditions for Ocean County could make for some top notch stargazing this weekend!

October 18th, 2017 - A rare daytime fireball meteor is caught on camera right here at the Jersey Shore. Take a look at the video!

I've talked many times about my love of looking at the stars and the night sky. Knowing that, you'll understand why something that happened this past weekend thrilled me.

There are truly few things that I love more than looking at the night sky. Ever since my childhood at summer camp, I've loved laying outside and gazing up at a crystal clear night sky. And this week we'll have not one, but a trio of treats in the skies over Ocean County.

I've talked before about my love for the night sky, and while you'd normally have to get far away from city and suburban light pollution for unique views, over the next few days a rare opportunity is visible throughout Ocean County.

I've talked before about my love for the night sky, and with the annual Perseid meteor shower at peak activity the next few nights, it's a perfect time to find a nice, dark place to do some sky watching.

If last week's "blood moon" eclipse wasn't enough extraterrestrial excitement for you, tonight will be another night to keep an eye on the sky for a celestial show.

You'll probably be up late tonight anyway finishing those last minute taxes, so take a few minutes to step outside for a somewhat rare celestial event. Tonight (well, actually early tomorrow morning), there will be a "blood moon" lunar eclipse.

I've talked before about my love for the night sky and seeing meteor showers, but nothing compares to what some Russians saw this morning on their way to work.

On the heels of telling you about one of my very favorite smartphone apps yesterday, this weekend will give you a good chance to take it for a spin with a great show in the sky expected.
