Description:

On this West Virginia Morning, we’ve long known that smoking can cause lung cancer. But what about air pollution? As The Allegheny Front reports, a new Appalachian study finds a connection.

Also, we have the latest from our occasional series Almost Heavens, where the astrophysicist and Clay Center educator Shannon Silverman guides us through the cosmos above the Mountain State. In this segment, we learn about what can be seen in the springtime skies overhead.
