Program Description

Details

Join NASA Solar System Ambassadors Linda McKenna and Mark Brown as they explore the science behind some Christmas stories. What were the Wise Men following? And how does Santa deliver all those presents in one night?

They will also cover some very exciting celestial events occurring in the month of December:

A huge conjunction will occur on December 21st, when Jupiter and Saturn will be the closest they have been since 1623! This is also the date of the Winter solstice. And if that is not enough holiday magic, you will learn how to view the Geminid meteor shower taking place during December too!
