Many thanks to these fine young men for keeping the enthusiasm going. Tonight I came in to watch this vid after being dazzled by the clear views of Venus, Jupiter, Orion, Pleaides, Sirius, and Mars! I am going to miss this Texas sky when I go back to the Evergreen but Evercloudy Seattle!

Absolutely! I was very disappointed. I haven't had an opportunity to watch the segment in a while. It is surprising to me that they feel the need to update something that was not broken. Jack Horkheimer had a wonderful five minute formula for sharing astronomy with the average citizen. It worked. In all of its elements, it was perfect for the layman like me.

They've ruined the music!

@kimbybrow60 The original music was a perfect theme for this kind of show. The new "music" is simply horrible to listen to and seems like it was created to attract teens from the 1980's.
