Our annual sky almanac provides information on all the celestial events happening throughout the year. The almanac is organized by month and contains sky calendars, dates and descriptions that are easy to read and understand. The Sky Almanac also includes information on meteor showers, eclipses, beautiful color photography, and more.
Coming Up in March/April
A plethora of black holes awaits you in the next issue of StarDate. Greg
Shields, black hole theorist at The University of Texas at Austin,
explains what it would be like if you ventured too near a black hole.
And freelance writer John Furhmann tells us how physicists are trying to
create tiny black holes in the lab -- using giant particle accelerators
to better understand these mysterious space monsters.
