Speaking of Saturn:Originally Posted by DevilHorse
They will be in the West in the early evening before and after that date -- it should be good viewing around 6 PM at my latitude (38 deg. N). I am hoping to have Saturn and its rings with Jupiter and its moons in the field of my scope at the same time.Jupiter and Saturn are getting closer, as they near their once-in-20-years conjunction on December 21, 2020. At their closest, they'll be only 0.1 degrees apart. That's just 1/5 of a full moon diameter.Nov 20, 2020
