--e89a8ff1c4e642422c04c5592508 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1252 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Courtesy of Nelson Poirier: This Week's Sky at a Glance Some night sky sights for July 20 =96 28 *Arcturus* is the brightest star high in the west after dark at this time of year. It and *Vega*, almost overhead, are the two leading stars of summer. Look off to the right of Arcturus, in the northwest, to spot the Big Dipper. On Thursday, July 26, the moon will go into its First Quarter Phase meaning it will rise at noon and set at midnight. On Saturday, July 21, the sun rose at 5:56 a.m. and will set at 9:02 p.m. On Saturday, July 28, the sun will rise at 6:03 a.m. and set at 8:55 p.m. This Week's Planet Roundup Mercury is out of sight in conjunction with the Sun. Venus and Jupiter (magnitudes =964.6 and =962.1) shine dramatically in the = east before and during dawn. They've widened to about 10=B0 or 12=B0 apart now, = with Jupiter higher. Mars (magnitude +1.0) glows orange low in the west-southwest at dusk, lower right of the Saturn-and-Spica pair by about 13=B0. Mars will pass between Saturn and Spica in mid-August. Saturn (magnitude +0.8) shines in the southwest as the stars come out. Below it by 4=BD=B0 is Spica, nearly the same brightness but note the twink= le effect. After dark they move lower to the west-southwest. --=20 Blake Maybank <bmaybank@gmail.com> White's Lake, Nova Scotia My Blog: *CSI: Life* <http://blakemaybank.com/> Organiser, *Maritimes Nature Travel Club* <http://tinyurl.com/naturetravel>= * * <http://tinyurl.com/naturetravel>Author, "*Birding Sites of Nova Scotia*<http://tinyurl.com/birdingns> --e89a8ff1c4e642422c04c5592508 Content-Type: text/html; charset=windows-1252 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div><font size=3D"4">Courtesy of Nelson Poirier:</font><font size=3D"4"></= font></div><font size=3D"4"><h1 dir=3D"ltr" id=3D"internal-source-marker_0.= 49410205977610466"><span style=3D"color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:"Times = New Roman";font-size:21px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-w= eight:bold;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;background-color:tr= ansparent">This Week's Sky at a Glance</span></h1> <h4 dir=3D"ltr"><span style=3D"color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:"Times New= Roman";font-size:21px;font-style:italic;font-variant:normal;font-weig= ht:bold;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;background-color:trans= parent">Some night sky sights for July 20 =96 28</span></h4> <div><span style=3D"color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:"Times New Roman"= ;;font-size:21px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;t= ext-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;background-color:transparent"><= strong><font color=3D"#000099">Arcturus</font></strong> is the brightest st= ar high in the west after dark at this time of year.
