Astronomy




-


If the clouds and sky will cooperate a little bit, the next week or so will be real good for those of us who enjoy looking at the objects here in our own solar system through a telescope.


-


Since Jupiter is at its closest, now should be a good time to see the red spot. Click on any of the pictures, and they should enlarge enough to be readable.


-


Also this week Venus is beginning to peek up above the horizon, the rings of Saturn should be beautiful as soon as it gets dark, and the red Mars should be nice to look at too.


-


Not to mention that the Moon is going to be putting on a nice show too!
