Description

Last week the Earth added a temporary second ‘moon’ to its orbit, but will Philadelphians be able to catch a glimpse through the buildings and light pollution? Host Trenae Nuri took a trip to the Franklin Institute to chat with chief astronomer Derrick Pitts, Hon.D to investigate these ‘two moons’ and find out what celestial happenings will make stargazing in the city extra special this fall.
