  I just "discovered" this while doing my Sunday work -- preparing for next week's seatwork. If you don't live in Florida or aren't fortunate enough to have this program carried on your local PBS, you're still in luck. Jack Horkheimer's  Stargazer shows are here to download to your RealPlayer.

The "shows" are little 1 or 5-minute presentations on what you will be able to witness in the skies (star-wise, anyway) for the coming week. No special equipment needed here; your naked eyeballs will do. Just to warn you, the man has a bad hairpiece and is, as my eldest remarked, "out there, Mom". But his pure enthusiasm will win you over.

If you and/or the kids love to look at the stars, this is a must-see.
