What do you enjoy viewing in the night sky?

Don't think really worth starting a new thread

You enjoy looking at stuff in the sky

One day there might not be stuff in the sky to look at

Will this be the way the Universe will end

If you don't yet have the app ''Stellarium,'' you should consider downloading it. If you hold your phone up to the sky while the app is open, you will see the names of stars, both visible and not visible, depending on the weather in your area. It makes star gazing a bit more fun.

Tonight, the moon is big and bright shining high above the trees, and Jupiter is right above it. No visible stars tonight, though.

But, this bright moon is enough.

 

I noticed that last night as well. My only star gazing these days seems to be when the cat poops, I scoop it up and walk out to the deck and toss the poop into the border of the backyard and then glance up at the sky on the way back in.

I noticed the very bright Moon and Jupiter very near it.

 

Jupiter has been very bright for quite a while now.

 

Maybe that’s your cat’s secret agenda to get you star gazing, again.

So, the temps over the holiday break finally cooled down, with very low humidity. Finally. And this means, there were a few starry nights to be had.

Early last week, I was able to see (not using a telescope) Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, and the Andromeda Galaxy but over the past couple of days, the air has become more humid, the temps are rising, and the stars have been hiding, once again. I'm hopeful the temps/humidity will drop again, soon. For longer this time, fingers crossed.
