| 11/16/25 |  Saturn-Titan Transits with Greg Shanos | Send us Fan MailIn this episode of The AstroGuy Podcast, Wayne sits down with planetary imager Greg Shanos, one of the most dedicated and skilled amateur astronomers working today. Greg recently completed an extraordinary observing project: imaging 15 out of 16 Titan transits across Saturn during this year’s rare transit season. These events only occur during brief windows every 15 years, making his achievement one of the most complete amateur records of the phenomenon.Before the interview, Wayne reminds listeners about the 1,000-subscriber contest, where one lucky viewer will win a free autographed and numbered print. If you haven’t entered yet, be sure to visit the contest video and leave a comment before November 25th.In the main segment, Greg shares how he planned and executed his transit campaign, the gear and imaging workflow he relied on, the challenges he faced along the way, and what these observations reveal about the Saturnian system. Greg was recently honored with the 2025 Walter A. Haas Observer Award from ALPO, recognizing his significant contributions to lunar and planetary observing.This episode offers a deep look at the power and passion of amateur astronomy — and how one dedicated observer can produce scientifically meaningful work that stands alongside professional data.Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and comment—it really helps us grow and reach more interested folks.Contact: AstroGuyPodcast@gmail.com Text/Voicemail: (973) 404-0380If you enjoy the episode, please subscribe, comment, and share, and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform.

| 10/26/25 |  What's Up in the November 2025 Skies? | Send us Fan MailIn this episode of The AstroGuy Podcast, Wayne explores what’s happening in the night sky this November. The evening skies are filled with bright planets — Jupiter shines brilliantly all month, Saturn’s rings appear nearly edge-on, and Uranus reaches opposition on November 21st, making this the best time of the year to view the distant ice giant. Neptune remains faint in Pisces, while Mercury, Mars, and Venus make brief appearances near sunrise and sunset. Comet Lemmon (C/2025 A6) continues to impress observers, while Comet SWAN (C/2025 R2) offers a fainter but rewarding binocular challenge. The Leonid meteor shower peaks on November 17th and 18th under dark, moonless skies, with about a dozen meteors per hour expected. In space news, SpaceX achieved another milestone with the successful dual splashdowns of Starship and its booster during Flight 11. This month’s lunar feature is Gassendi Crater, a striking, terraced impact crater on the edge of Mare Humorum.The Deep Sky Tour focuses on Perseus, high in the eastern sky on November evenings. Wayne shares the mythology behind the hero who rescued Andromeda and highlights Perseus’s brightest stars — Mirfak and Algol — along with several deep sky treasures.Wayne also previews the next episode — an interview with planetary imager Greg Shanos, who recently captured 15 of 16 Titan transits across Saturn.

| 9/15/25 |  Rediscovering the Joy of Visual Observing | Send us Fan MailIn this episode I recount how I rediscovered the pure joy of visual observing. For years, I’ve been focused on capturing images of galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters, but one night with just a pair of 7x50 binoculars reminded me why I fell in love with the night sky in the first place.From spotting several of my favorite deep sky objects, to catching Saturn and Neptune in the same binocular field, the experience was both simple and magical. No cables, no cameras, no software—just me, and the universe.In this episode, we’ll talk about: - Why visual observing matters - How binocular astronomy is the perfect starting point - Favorite binocular targets, tips, and resources - A challenge for you to reconnect with the skySometimes the most meaningful moments in astronomy come not from images or data, but from simply looking up. Whether you’re brand new to the hobby or have been at it for decades, I hope this episode inspires you to step outside, look up, and reconnect with the night sky.Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share to help spread the joy of stargazing.Join the AstroGuy Podcast community on Facebook, and share your own observing experiences!If you enjoy the episode, please subscribe, comment, and share, and leave a review.

| 8/9/25 |  The Great Astronomers: Henrietta Swan Leavitt, the woman who measured the universe | Send us Fan MailIn this installment of the Great Astronomers Series, we dive into the life and legacy of Henrietta Swan Leavitt, one of astronomy’s most quietly revolutionary figures. From painstakingly measuring the brightness of stars on photographic plates to uncovering the relationship that would become the foundation for modern cosmology, Leavitt’s work changed our understanding of the universe.Learn how her discovery of the period-luminosity relationship in Cepheid variable stars enabled astronomers like Edwin Hubble to measure the vast distances between galaxies and prove that the universe is expanding.In the episode, we go over:· Henrietta Leavitt’s early life and education· Her work as a Harvard “computer”· Discovering the Cepheid variable relationship· How her data made cosmic distance measurements possible· Her lasting impact on astronomy and why she deserves wider recognitionWhat did you think of Henrietta Leavitt’s story?

| 6/22/25 |  Integration Time: Is more really better? | Send us Fan MailWelcome to the AstroGuy Podcast!, in this episode we’re focusing on one of the most essential topics in astrophotography—total integration time. Have you ever asked yourself why experienced astrophotographers spend hours—or even nights—on a single target? Well, we’ll break down exactly what integration time is, why it plays a vital role in your deep sky images, and how you can maximize your total exposure time for sharper, more detailed results. Whether you're a beginner in astrophotography or looking to take your imaging to the next level, this episode is packed with practical tips, clear explanations, and real-world advice to help you get the most out of every frame. In the episode, we’ll cover topics such as: • What is total integration time? • Why longer exposures make a difference • How to shoot across multiple nights • Planning for moonlight and light pollution • The importance of calibration frames (darks, flats, bias) • Avoiding the trap of shooting too many targets in one night If you enjoy the episode, please subscribe, comment, and share, and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform.
