What is up in the sky?

What are all those things "up there" anyway?

Griffith Observatory Sky Report

The Sky Report gives the latest information on what's up in the sky. The Sky Report is usually updated on Wednesdays. The text of the Sky Report is available on the web site http://www.griffithobservatory.org/skyreport.html. The Sky Report is also available as a three-minute recorded telephone message. You can hear it 24/7 by dialing (213) 473-0880. There is no charge other than for long-distance fees if you are outside the Los Angeles area.
