This is the weekend when both the Moon and Jupiter upstage all other celestial events.
This is the weekend when both the moon and Jupiter upstage all other celestial events. The gibbous moon appears next to Jupiter on Sunday night; both are in the zodiacal constellation Leo. On Saturday night, the two are close, but not so close.
Even tonight the moon and Jupiter are on stage, far brighter than any of the nearby stars of the night. You’ll find the two high in the southeastern sky after sunset. Being so bright, they make a natural and easy pair.
We’ve stood on the shoreline of Sengekontacket Pond late at night and seen these two objects reflected in still water.
Next week the moon continues on its journey through the zodiac. It passes through the large spring constellation of Virgo. The gibbous moon appears near the bright star Spica on Wednesday night, and moves closer by Thursday morning.
The full moon, the Daffodil Moon, arrives on the evening of Friday, April 22.
