Join Chris Lintott and Mr Max on their evening exploration of the night sky (Chris) and the discarded pizza boxes of Oxford (Max). Indulge in lazy astronomy: the art of being impressed simply by looking up. The podcast is your five minute guide to what to look for in our changing night sky and the stories of what's found there, as you wander with or without your own four-legged friend. Remember: No barking! Descriptions of the sky suitable for anywhere in the northern hemisphere.

Episode 28: Capella

Mr Max and Chris are back out under surprisingly wintery skies. We check in on our old friend Betelgeuse, follow a new friend for a while with #nobarking, and talk about why you need goats in your chariot, why one star is really four, and what to spot with binoculars.
