"Astronaut" followed by "California Skies"

The exploration of space is the greatest endeavour that humankind has ever undertaken. What does it take to be part of this incredible journey? What does it take to become an astronaut?  Experience a rocket launch from inside the body of an astronaut. Explore the amazing worlds of inner and outer space, from floating around the International Space Station to maneuvering through microscopic regions of the human body. Discover the perils that lurk in space as we subject 'Chad', our test astronaut, to everything that space has to throw at him.  Narrated by Ewan McGregor.

"Caliofornia Skies" is a live star program.  You will be taken on a tour of the evening skies, showing you the bright stars, constellations, planets, and deep sky objects visible in the sky tonight
