Astro Bob King is taking in the total solar eclipse from Antarctica this week, but intrepid Eric Norland of the Arrowhead Astronomical Society flew to our rescue with a recap of his mission, some suggestions for stargazers in the days and weeks to come, a tidbit or two about the DART mission, and even a musical interlude.
After a little break (of 25 years or so) Bob King is celebrating his retirement with a return to The North 103.3's airwaves!After almost 40 years with the Duluth News Tribune, Bob is now retired. But scratch a print guy and you'll find a radio guy; King and then-UMD Planetarium Director Glen Langhorst hosted Startalk on KUMD for several years in the early '90s.Listen for Astro Bob every other Tuesday at 8am on Northland Morning.
