Next week, people across the country will turn their eyes - hopefully - to the skies to watch a rare solar eclipse. We're looking up too. We'll talk about the eclipse, and about stargazing, astronomy, and all the latest from space - including the dramatic final mission of the Saturn probe Cassini.
We're joined by VPR's , senior meteorologist at the Fairbanks Museum and Planetarium. You hear him on VPR's weather forecasts, and he also hosts the program on stargazing.
We're also joined by astronomer , chair of the physics department at St. Michael's College.
Broadcast live on Tuesday, August 15, 2017 at noon; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.
