BAJA NIGHT SKY. Venus is now the morning star and Mercury the evening star. But you will need sharp eyes to spot Venus in the east half an hour before sunrise, and Mercury in the west after sunset. Saturn and Mars are still in the southeastern sky before sunrise.  I hope you saw the Moon and Jupiter side-by-side all night Tuesday. And the full moon Wednesday night  occurred at its farthest distance from earth for a full moon in more than 1000 years. So it was the smallest full moon in 1000 years.  The Southern Cross is now visible  exactly over the south point of the horizon at 5:00 am. If you have binoculars, try finding the Orion Nebula in Orion's sword, the Andromeda Spiral Galaxy above and west of the M-shaped Cassiopeia, The Crab Nebula of Baja Cave Painting fame about two fists above Jupiter, and The Pleiades near Jupiter also. Starting January 20, you can use your computer or smartphone  to help measure the extent of light pollution in Baja Sur. Instructions  are at www.globeatnight.org. Just count the stars you can see in Orion, compare your count with one of  8 star maps, and send in your results. Choose the maps for Latitude 20N. A new  map with your results will be published online.

Help! You wouldn't think of throwing your garbage through your neighbor's windows,  or blasting it into sea and sky. But that's what happens when we turn on outdoor lights that don't have proper shielding, ruining  the night sky, causing insomnia and disease, confusing wildlife, and wasting energy. A Breckenridge, Colorado  city ordinance states: ... fixtures and lighting systems should be designed & installed to: 1)  minimize impacts on adjacent property owners; 2) control glare and light trespass; 3) conserve energy; 4) maintain safety and security of people and wildlife; and 5) maintain the view of the stars in the night sky. I commend our new neighbor,  Chad Christy, who hails from Breckenridge,  for installing non-polluting outdoor lights on his new home in El Sargento.  All outdoor lights on his property are enclosed in sconces that he designed, which direct all light to the ground where it is needed. We can look over his house at night and see the stars clearly. There is none of the glare or sky glow that comes from other nearby locations. Instead, this house at night has a soft glow and striking ambiance. Information on Breckenridge lighting, and another source of inexpensive ways to convert existing lighting into sky- and neighbor-friendly fixtures can be found at  http://www.townofbreckenridge.com/index.aspx?page=631  and http://store.starrynightlights.com/lightshades.html  .

THUMBS UP - ANSWERS - DISCUSSIONS- This category must have name and/or email address.

a.  Bus Discussion:  In San Jose last week and picked up a list of departure times for Aquila buses (white with blue markings).
     They leave SJDC at 6:00, 8:00, 10:00, 12:15, 14:15, 16:15, 18:00. They do not stop at the airport proper, but out on the highway at the overpass from the airport. A friend has simply got a cab from the airport to there. Takes probably about 15 minutes to get to airport vicinity stop.
     There is/was? a green bus ("Autobus Climatizado" on the display) which travelled from Cabo to LB for stops at the big stores for shoppers (Costco, Soriana, et cetera). Don't know if that is even still operating to LB. I am guessing that it makes frequent (flag-down) stops.
