November/December 2003
The November/December issue of StarDate magazine brings you Cloud-Free Astronomy. Learn about the accomplishments and discoveries of airborne telescopes as we celebrate the Century of Flight. It's been 100 years since the Wright brothers first took off from Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. And for the past several decades, astronomers have placed telescopes aboard aircraft to scan the skies from above the clouds.

Also in this issue: Iron Mountain from the Sky.

Every issue of StarDate also includes monthly star charts and stargazing highlights, plus stunning astronomical images.
