BAJA NIGHT SKIES
-- Week of January 12/13, 2013: New Moon,
the moment the moon is invisible between the
earth and the sun, occurred Friday around 1pm.
For the next few nights, a thin crescent moon
will hang low in the southwest after sunset. On
Saturday and Sunday evenings between 6 and 7 pm,
see if you can spot The Red Planet Mars
just below the crescent moon. With the crescent
moon setting between 7pm and 11pm for the next 4
or 5 nights, we should have dark skies, and if
they are free of clouds and artificial light,
excellent star gazing conditions. Connect
the "horns" of the crescent moon with
an imaginary bow string, load an arrow and
shoot. Your arrow is headed directly at the sun
which is below the horizon. I wonder if this
sight inspired the invention of the bow and
arrow? By 7pm this week, the Winter
Circle/Hexagon of stars will have risen in
the southeast sky. Learning the names and
locations of these stars will enable you to
"star hop" to nebula, other galaxies, and star
clusters using just the naked eye or binoculars.
Start with Aldebaran in Taurus, which is just
below Jupiter, the brightest star-like object
currently in the eastern evening sky. Continue
down to Rigel, the right foot/knee of Orion.
Nearby, under Orion's belt, try to find the
great green Orion Nebula, an active star
factory. From Rigel drop down to Sirius, the
second brightest object after Jupiter. Just
below Sirius is the open star cluster M41,
easily seen through binoculars. From Sirius head
east to Procyon of science fiction fame. This
leg takes you across a spiral arm of our Milky
Way Galaxy, rich with stars through binoculars.
Sirius, Procyon and Betelgeuse (the red left
hand/arm of Orion) form the Winter Triangle.
The final three sides go from Procyon
northwest to Pollux and Castor in Gemini, then
west to Capella in Auriga, and finally back down
to Aldebaran. Just to the west of Jupiter is the
open star cluster known as The Pleiades
or seven sisters. Binoculars reveal many more
stars in this cluster. The bright morning
"star" Venus is rising later each morning
as it heads towards a rendezvous with the sun.
Soon it will disappear in the sun's glare, then
reappear in the west as the evening star. Tom

THUMBS UP - ANSWERS -
DISCUSSIONS-
This category must have name & email address.
Discussion: Car Break-ins -
There were more comments sent to the BPE but rather than take up
half the BPE, I think the message is very clear................
a. Thursday as well I have a friend who was
at Cerritos Beach in my RV the RV got broke into as well while they
where 100 yards away at the beach. This was a professional job they
used a tool that pops the lock clean and pulls it out. They took a
purse and a Ipad. Be very careful right now.
b. Friends from San Jose went to the busy
beach El Tule towards Todos Santos and their car was vandalized as
they took a walk on the beach.... lost lots! And SO SAD because
LOTS of MX children w/education expenses!!
FISHING REPORTS
-
Local's fishing reports do
NOT need to be signed.
a. Just in
from Eric Brictson of Gordo Banks Pangas in San Jose. If you read
the Bajafisherman.com Cabo report-you’d have read a piece about the
fleet’s chasing them (successfully) down there. Now’s our chance!!!
If you chase them too, send me a report at
wadeinthewater2@gmail.com
“The tuna pens I
believe are headed towards the La Paz area. They should be about off
Los Frailes today (Friday), should be in your range for the next few
days and might come closer to shore as they track towards La Paz?
Normally they run about 20 miles from shore and have lots of small
yellowfin and mixed sized dorado following the pens.
QUESTIONS
a.
Where can one purchase a wet suit
on this end of the Baja? The dive shops advertise their trips but
not their wares. Please email: dtinnish@gmail.com
b. Looking for a physiotherapist to help
rehabilitate a knee injury. Please contact Scott at
