Observing With Webb - November 2021
Why get out there at night in November? It’s Lunar Eclipse Month! Well, partially… Venus, Saturn, and Jupiter are rocking the sunsets, we technically have a meteor shower, turkey day night will be awesome, and, most importantly, we can witness an almost total lunar eclipse.
Welcome to Observing With Webb, where a high school astronomy teacher tells you what you’re looking at, why it’s so cool, and what you should check out later this month…at night.
Nov 25th – Thanksgiving – After feasting on food, feast your eyes on the sky: Venus will be super bright low in the SW after sunset until about 7pm., with Saturn and Jupiter up higher and longer (9:30pm and 10:50pm set times). Definitely worth a good look through the telescope. At about 9pm the Waning Gibbous Moon will rise in the ENE, joining the Fall and Winter constellations of Pegasus, Andromeda, Taurus, Orion, and Gemini. With the corn all cut down, watching the Moon rise and turn orange to white amidst the stars will be truly enjoyable.
