About this listen
High in the summer sky shines a brilliant star - Altair, the beating heart of the constellation Aquila, the Eagle. As one of the closest stars to Earth, Altair has fascinated stargazers for centuries. But did you know this star spins so fast it’s no longer round?
In this episode of Wonders in the Sky, discover how to find Altair tonight and learn why it’s one of the most extraordinary stars in our galaxy. From its incredible rotation speed to its role in ancient myths like Orihime and Hikoboshi, Altair is a reminder of how science and storytelling intertwine in the night sky.
✨ Step outside this week after 11 PM, follow the arc of the Summer Triangle, and let Altair guide your gaze to the stars. No telescope needed - just your eyes and a sense of wonder.
