Astrophiz 159: Dr Ian Musgrave’s November SkyGuide ~ Total Lunar Eclipse & Dung Beetle Navigation.
Enjoy your regular monthly treat of viewing tips for all naked-eye celestial observers, telescopers, and astrophotographers from Dr @IanfMusgrave, amateur astronomer, molecular pharmacologist and toxicologist.
Ian gives us all the viewing highlights and what planets to look out for in our morning and evening skies. This special month also brings you a total lunar eclipse, an excellent view of Uranus right next to the eclipsed moon, and a hint of a meteor shower.

In Ian’s tangent we hear about the fascinating celestial navigation skills of Dung Beetles that are being impaired by light pollution.
Enjoy!
