Weekly Stargazing: The Summer Triangle

Andrew is back with some stargazing tips, and this time we're learning about the Summer Triangle!

The Summer Triangle is what we call "an asterism", a pattern of stars that are made from a larger constellation or constellations. The best time to see it is June, but you can find it in the sky after midnight from early May all the way into October. If you’re in a really dark night sky, the Summer Triangle is a great way to find our galaxy, the Milky Way.
