Weekly Space Hangout – November 1, 2013: Comet ISON Special

We interrupt your regular Weekly Space Hangout for an hour-long special on Comet ISON, broadcast live from the Pacific Space Centre in Vancouver, BC.

We’ve got special guests +Pamela Gay, +Nicole Gugliucci, +David Dickinson and Sondy Springmann to discuss the upcoming arrival of Comet ISON.

We’ll discuss the history of the comet, review its orbit, and give you tips and tricks for how you can participate in this amazing event (or non-event).

We record the Weekly Space Hangout every Friday at 12:00 pm Pacific / 3:00 pm Eastern. You can watch us live on Google+, Universe Today, or the Universe Today YouTube page.
