Celebrate the winter solstice with us! We'll take a journey into this astronomically significant day. Plus, we'll explore the winter constellations (Orion, Taurus, Canis Major, Gemini and more), bright stars (Sirius, Betelgeuse, Aldebaran and more), and share pointers on how you can see the subtle, yet beautiful winter Milky Way. Additionally, we'll share which celestial objects you can look for with your unaided eye, a pair of binoculars or a small telescope. Bring your questions!
