“If they don’t see the universe, they won’t wonder about it. What’s the use of somebody who doesn’t wonder? If they don’t wonder, they’re dead.”- John Dobson, amateur astronomer
The Night Sky is a monthly program produced and hosted by Darrell Heath of the UA Little Rock College of Arts, Letters and Sciences. In each episode, Darrell explains the science, history and sometimes the mythology of our amazing universe.

He has served as a past president of the Arkansas Herpetological Society and the Central Arkansas Astronomical Society. Darrell is also a volunteer with the Jet Propulsion Laboratory’s Solar System Ambassador program, dedicated to conveying to the public information about NASA’s ongoing missions to explore the solar system.
