Starry Night is an excellent
aid for exploring the heavens...a superb, well documented program that
will transform you into an expert in no time. "There are few experiences as invigorating as being out in the countryside standing under a canopy of star on a still night. Starry Night conveys that feeling better than any other desktop planetarium" --New York Times |
StarGazer The Nights Of The Harvest Moon and Mars And Regulus Meet The full moon of September 12, 13 and 14 rises at sunset and is visible all night long, moving across the southern sky from east to west. Mars moves close to the bright star Regulus in September. The two bodies are closest on September 16. The best time to view them is about an hour before sunrise. Currently Regulus is brighter than Mars, but usually Mars is the brighter object. Mars is relatively dim right now, because it is on the opposite side of the sun, and therefore farther away from Earth.
