Calarogu Shark Media. Hello and welcome to Sleep from Space.

00:00:12.679 --> 00:00:15.839
The Moon rises late tonight, giving you dark skies for

3
00:00:15.919 --> 00:00:19.879
the first few hours after sunset. Great time to catch

4
00:00:19.920 --> 00:00:24.160
some stars. NASA is counting down to Artemis two, which

5
00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:27.879
will send four astronauts around the Moon in the coming weeks.

6
00:00:29.239 --> 00:00:32.960
Here's something to think about. Radio signals from Earth have

7
00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:37.159
been traveling through space for about one hundred years. Any

8
00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:41.119
civilization within one hundred light years could potentially detect Us.

9
00:00:42.920 --> 00:00:46.399
This is prime Mars viewing season. Look for its distinctive

10
00:00:46.479 --> 00:00:50.560
orange glow in the eastern sky after dark. Jupiter is

11
00:00:50.600 --> 00:00:53.119
still visible low in the west early in the evening.

00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:59.200
Sleep from Space uses AI to gather and narrate information

13
00:00:59.240 --> 00:01:03.560
from NASA and spaceflight news sources around the world. Sweet
