Fair Weather Star Gazers. Welcome!

    For northern hemisphere observers, the weather is warming up and people are more likely to go out in the late evening and do some casual star gazing. The only problem is, with daylight savings time, one has to wait until late evening to start observing.
The summer Milky Way skims along the eastern horizon at sunset, promising riches to come in the months ahead. The center of our home galaxy rises very late in the evening, close to midnight.


    This May, Saturn is high in the south in the early evening.
