Perry Vlahos on jjj today

[Jupiter]

I think thats his name, from the Astronomical society of Victoria, talking about the partial lunar eclipse, its a pity the DJ was acting like a goose because Perry was very interesting to listen to, but the DJ kept cutting him off and making stupid werewolf jokes etc etc, jjj have a good segment on thursdays with dr karl, it would be nice if they had a regular segment about astronomy too.

Agree - I heard it too, presenter had that "astronomers are cranks" type of attitude I felt!
Then again maybe we are
Cheers

Yes, Perry does know his stuff! If you are in Mebourne, and are a bit bored on Wednesday night (13th), drop in to our general meeting and you can hear his talk on the sky for the month. We are in the Herbarium building next to the shrine. If you go to the ASV site, you may be able to find out when he is on radio normally (I think he does a regular spot with ABC?, the site may have more). www.asv.org.au
