REBECCA ROBERTS, host: We tried to take Derrick Pitts' advice and find Saturn. We really did look in the night sky, but the weather just wouldn't cooperate. So we did the next best thing: We stopped into the planetarium at the Rock Creek Park Nature Center here in Washington, D.C.</s>Mr. RON HARVEY (Ranger, Rock Creek Park Nature Center): My name is Ron Harvey, one of the rangers here in Rock Creek Park. Been here, affiliated with Rock Creek since 1999.</s>Mr. RON HARVEY (Ranger, Rock Creek Park Nature Center): To find Saturn, and Saturn is something that you'll be able to see really throughout the entire spring, well into the summer, is all tied up in the Big Dipper. The Big Dipper is something you'll be able to see as soon as the sun goes down.</s>Mr. RON HARVEY (Ranger, Rock Creek Park Nature Center): The sun will go down in the west. Look in the complete opposite direction, you'll see the Big Dipper rising up from the horizon over on your left-hand side. Go up here to the top of the Dipper, the two stars that make the pan, those far two stars right over there…</s>REBECCA ROBERTS, host: That was a very cool zooming effect.</s>Mr. RON HARVEY (Ranger, Rock Creek Park Nature Center): Thank you, thank you. Imagine that those two stars, water is dripping out of it in a straight line, one, two, three, it's going to take you to a constellation known as Leo, and that is pretty much where Saturn is hanging out right now.</s>Mr. RON HARVEY (Ranger, Rock Creek Park Nature Center): Saturn is actually going to be just below Leo. Right now in the springtime, it's kind of down here in its back paw, and even with a cheap pair of binoculars, you can actually go up, and you can actually zoom right into Saturn and see those beautiful rings onto it.
