Newtons Notes

As the Summer nights draw in and the days get longer, it gets darker later into the month. So what is up? Venus: Continues to grace the western sky at dusk, always a delight to view either with the naked eye, binoculars, or small telescope. Though larger telescopes may be required to view the phase of Venus. Mars: Not in view at the moment Jupiter: Rises after Venus sets, look for it in the Eastern Sky shortly after sunset it is low in the sky in the constellation of libra. Use the above map to find it starting with Leo. Jupiter is always a delight through a small telescope. Spot the pale brown belts and the 4 Galileon Moons. There are apps which will help name them. Saturn: Rises much later in the early hours of the morning around 02:30
