hello hello hello and good afternoon afternoon this is Diane and Randall bro here coming to you live from Prescot Arizona talk about the Jim and Linda Lee planetarian planetarium at Embry Riddle yeah if you ever um look at the city with any kind of elevation and you look over in the right direction you’ll see what looks like a giant golf bomb yeah that is the planetarian that’s it and uh the Lees were very gracious to make this happen for our beautiful town so we recently went and saw a whole show about the stars of Prescot the stars of presc which I guess they do every month they update pry cool for what’s happening they they uh tipped us off to a meteor shower yes that was coming in December so we were on the lookout for that yep and they go over you know different times of the year where the stars are and where they move and and it was just it’s first class it is first class such a cool such a cool cool place we wanted to go um it opened shortly before covid I guess and uh we had wanted to go and wanted to go and then it was shut down for covid so we couldn’t go and then we were waiting for it to come back and it wasn’t back and I just kind of fell off the map for a little while and then I I don’t know what happened it was like let’s go and we went with some good friends Y and uh we had a great time yeah uh if you’ve ever been to a planetarium before this is not the planetarium that you knew as a in the 60s or 70s where it’s essentially you know like a ball with a light bulb in the middle and has holes in it and it’s nothing like that okay it it’s they will they will show you uh a constellation and they’ll focus in on one star and they focus in they actually went through a constellation and showed the spatial relationship you know sort of like it’s up down where they went like yeah the Seven Sisters they look like they’re very close together but in point of fact some are much closer to the Earth than others so they flying through the air to show you what it looks like from a different perspective amazing and they have different shows they have different shows that go over different things it’s a very reasonable price to get in there so it was just a lovely uh event to go to we saw learned all kinds of stars like 30 minutes something like that yeah and it’s really good because we are a dark town because we used to have observatories so you see tons of stars here so you sit on your deck or you sit on your patio it’s dark we don’t have a lot of street lights so you see all these Stars well you go to the Planetarium you learn all about them yeah yeah and what it means and and some of the mythology behind it and I I must confess some of the creatures I’m like I don’t quite see that but hey yeah that’s cool yeah whatever ever um people had a lot of imagination they had a lot of imagination and not a lot of TV yeah but it’s uh it’s fascinating and you really learn a lot and then when you’re outside now you’ve learned it so you can see for yourself oh I know what that is I just saw that at the planetarium and you might even go get your own telescope a lot of our friends have done that and they star watch and Planet watch yeah if you have any interest in astronomy or even astrology I guess for that matter uh Prescot is a great place to do that with our Dark Skies I have I’ve never really lived anywhere else where the skies were this dark right I have learned more about the sky in the past seven years that I’ve been here than I learned in the previous however many I don’t want to mention the number uh that I was around because uh just the darkness of the Skies so if you have any interest in the skies at all and you’re coming here this is great you’re in the right town and check out the planetarium is a great place to kick off your exploration it’s awesome okay so thank you to Jim and Linda Lee for making that happen absolutely and adding yet another dimension to our really cool Tawn yeah all right my friends that’s our tip of the day look up in the Stars give us a call see you soon bye bye
