Neptune at Opposition

One of the giants of the outer solar system is at its best this week. Neptune lines up opposite the Sun in our sky. From that position, it rises at sunset and is in the sky all night. And it shines at its brightest. It’s the Sun’s most remote major planet, though — about 2.7 billion miles away — so you need good binoculars or a telescope to see it.

Catching Salmon

In modern times, salmon from the Pacific Ocean is a delicacy — an expensive dish that’s usually served as a treat — even in areas where the fish is plentiful. In ancient times, though, that wasn’t the case. During spawning runs, tribes and villages caught salmon by the thousands. Many of the fish were preserved, providing nutritious meals during the long, cold winter.
