Today:
With the Crescent Moon now below Leo’s bright star Regulus tomorrow morning from 5 o’clock to sunrise, from 6 to 6:15 AM, look well to the Moon’s lower right, where, just above the horizon, you might see a comet in the twilight, Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS, with a faint tail to the upper right. It rounds the Sun, lost in its glare, then reappears in the evenings by October 12th, low in the west-southwest.
Monday:
The Milky Way arcs across the sky from the northeast, where the bright star Capella is rising, running through the Summer Triangle overhead, and then is anchored in the southwest with the setting star Antares, the red star marking the heart of Scorpio, the Scorpion.
Tuesday:
Dark evenings tonight and tomorrow will offer a chance to see the Andromeda Galaxy, the most distant object human eyes can see. Look in the east-northeast for a slightly curved line of three stars, angled a bit up on the right end. From the middle star, go up to fainter stars, and then look for a faint puff of light. Binoculars will help.
