SA Extra: Chit Chat Show#6

By Aaron on February 10, 2006 at 11:05 pm | In Slacker Astronomy Archival Podcasts | No Comments

• Bad Astronomy Blog
• Scopereviews.com – A good web site for telescope reviews
• Our AAS and AAPT meeting blog
• Ricky Gervais Show
• NASA Administrator Talk – Michael Brown’s talk about E/PO at the AAS Meeting
• Sky & Telescope list of local astro clubs

Pamela talks about the physics teachers meeting, we answer some listener mail, then Phil Plait joins us for a bit of talk about the AAS meeting and NASA responsibilities for education and public outreach. Then we talk about good starter telescopes for under US$300. Aaron and Pamela duke it out over dobsonian mounts and mutually reach the same conclusion that our listeners reached years ago – we’re both clueless.

Enjoy.
