We begin the show with a discussion around the highlights to observe this May:

- International Astronomy Day on 14th May
- Mars at opposition on 22nd May
- Three meteor shower peaks, Eta Aquariids (6th), Eta Lyrids (8th) & Camelopardalids (24th)
Next we each suggest and help you find a deep sky favourite to observe in May:
- Ralph – M51 The Whirlpool Galaxy
- Paul – M3 Globular cluster in Canes Venatici
- Jeni – M27 The Dumbbell Nebula
Finally we round up the moon phases and a couple of nice planetary and lunar conjunctions.
