astronomy this month

[shortstuffO3]

Can anyone tell me or give me a site that shows the dates and events for things coming up this month in space. I really want to know nights that I should be going out and looking at it. I would like to see meteor showers and all the special events for this month of July. I would also like to know when it is best to see the planets and all. Thanks!

"nasa tv" can give you some good live footage of whats going on "right now"

Try www.heavens-above.com

You can even put in your post code/co-ordinates and get it personalised for your location

http://spaceweather.com/ is a good site, with some good links. There is a program called "stary night" that tells you whats visible in the night sky present, past and future, i have seen it offered free on some old pc mags somewhere but you may be able to download a copy free or obtain one reasonably cheap
