Whales and dolphins live 'human-like' lives
They work together, talk to each other and use tools. A new study links the complexity of Cetacean culture and behavior to the size of their brains.
Watch spacewalk tomorrow
Friday’s is the last of 3 International Space Station spacewalks this month. NASA TV coverage will begin at 6:30 a.m. EDT (10:30 UTC). The spacewalk will start at approximately 8:05 a.m. EDT (12:05 UTC). Translate to your timezone.
Look for Orionid meteors
Details on the annual Orionid meteor shower. How and when to watch. In 2017, the peak morning is probably October 21 - Saturday morning - but start watching now, before dawn!
Tonight … Uranus at opposition to the sun
Opposition for Uranus - or any outer planet - means it's opposite the sun in our sky, rising at sunset. The new moon provides a dark night for viewing this faint world.

Uranus opposite the sun
Uranus shines no more brilliantly than the sky’s faintest stars. Given a dark sky free of light pollution, you might see Uranus with the eye alone – but only if you know right where to look for this distant world in front of the rather faint constellation Pisces.
