--e89a8fb2012a9cd5fa04c9ad2552 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 September 14 =96 22* The *Big Dipper* is swinging down low in the northwest as if carrying water at the moment. To see the Dipper at its very lowest due north, you'll have to stay up till 2 a.m. On Saturday, September 15, the *Moon *will go into its New Phase meaning it will rise at noon and set at midnight. As summer prepares to give way to fall (at the equinox on September 22nd), *Vega *prepares to give way to *Deneb *as the bright zenith star when night descends. This is also when *Altair *is crossing its own highest point due south. . On Saturday, September 22, *Autumn *begins in the Northern Hemisphere (spring in the Southern Hemisphere) at the equinox, 11:49 a.m. This is when the Sun crosses the equator heading south for the year. On Saturday, September 15, the *Sun *rose at 7:02 a.m. and will set at 7:33 p.m. On Saturday. September 22, the sun will rise at 7:11 a.m. and set at 7:20 * * *This Week's Planet Roundup* *Mercury* is hidden deep in the sunset. *Venus* (magnitude =964.2) rises in darkness around 4 a.m. emerging above t= he east-northeast horizon two hours before the first glimmer of dawn. By dawn it's blazing high in the east. *Mars* and *Saturn* (magnitudes +1.2 and +0.8) are low in the southwest and west-southwest, respectively, after sunset. They're now about 20=B0 apart. Use binoculars to help find them in early twilight before they sink too low. *Jupiter* (magnitude =962.4) rises in the east-northeast around midnight.
