Planetarium Shows August 13, 2011

A Bee-Hive, goodbye to Jupiter, good morning Venus and a very special hello to Mercury! Mercury, which is about to be seen in the evening sky, is on the brink of receiving a permanent resident from Earth. We'll have photos and details as the Messenger space probe arrives at Mercury this month. You'll also hear about Earth's very speedy probe, New Horizons, as it heads to everyone's favorite Dwarf Planet, Pluto. This is the perfect time of year to view the last of winter's best sights in the telescopes!
