For those who read Astronomy and Sky&Telescope, the latest issue is out and the former is giving a COSMOS poster free...
Articles are still Mars-centric and I do not expect it to stop even though Mars is moving futher away as a number of international probes are expected to arrive at Mars in Dec03/Jan04.

Hi,
Is it the Dec issue?? Heard that got an article on how to take astro-video using camcorder... Need to see is there other way or technique that I can use to improve my video or how to take deep sky object if possible... :)

There's a very nice write up on Saturn in the latest S&T too, and that will be very useful for first time Saturn observers when it appears over our skies during the more convenient hours sometime in December. It's currently already visible over our Eastern horizon - but at near midnight.
