Warm summer nights, far cooler than daytime highs, make astronomy a pleasant hobby. One doesn’t have to put on a coat or dress in any special way.

Saturday night an assembly of beautiful celestial objects shine low in the western sky after sunset.

The summer night sky is filled with sparkling, shining and barely visible colorful stars.

Behind the rockets’ red glare, there is plenty to see Saturday night overhead.

On Sunday night, the gibbous moon appears low in the southeastern sky, near the bright star Spica.

Summer arrives on Sunday afternoon at 12:38 p.m.
