Snuggle up and look up, Leon and Beth are back with your June night sky guide from Scitech, recorded on Whadjuk Noongar land. This month, we chase the Milky Way as it stretches across the southeastern sky on cold, clear winter nights. They share top tips for stargazing in light polluted Perth (yes, your hand is a valid telescope substitute) and highlight Venus beaming brightly in the pre-dawn east.

We also dive into the Winter Solstice on June 21 aka the longest night of the year and explain how to track the Sun’s movement using nothing but your driveway and some chalk. And finally, we meet this month’s celestial underdog: Lupus the Wolf. It’s faint, it’s mysterious, and it used to be part of a drunken centaur’s wine sack.

Grab a coat, find the southeast, and come howl at the stars with us.

Join Beth and Leon for your monthly stargazing guide as they explore the Borloo night sky this April. As we farewell Bunuru and welcome cooler nights, catch your last good views of Orion setting in the northwest alongside bright Jupiter. Mars shines vividly near Gemini and hidden between these celestial landmarks is Cancer the Crab—this month’s dim but rewarding constellation to spot. Discover the faint 'nebula-like' star cluster at Cancer’s heart and hear about the fascinating exoplanet system around 55 Cancri. Early risers can witness a stunning parade of Mercury, Venus, Saturn, and even Neptune before dawn, beautifully paired with a crescent moon late in the month. And don't miss the return of the Milky Way rising spectacularly in the southeast, crowned by the Southern Cross!

Join Leon and Beth for your monthly stargazing guide as they explore the Borloo night sky this March. As Bunuru lingers, the warm nights offer perfect conditions for spotting Mars and Jupiter shining brightly in the north. Meanwhile, Saturn, Venus, and Mercury remain hidden in the Sun’s glare but will start to emerge late in the month, with even better views coming in April. Look high in the southern sky to spot the Argo Navis constellation, and in the west, keep an eye out for the lesser-known Lepus—the celestial hare—hopping beneath Orion’s feet. Plus, learn about the March equinox and how the Earth's wobble has shifted the night sky over time!
