--047d7bd76e7858024c04ee9d407d Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 *Courtesy of Nelson Poirier:* *This Week's Sky at a Glance* *October 26-November 1* Soon after dark, *Sirius *(the Dog Star) shines almost due south at the moment. *Orion *strides to the upper right of Sirius. On Wednesday, January 1, the *Moon *will go into its New Phase meaning we will not see it during the night. Expect higher high tides and lower low tides. On Saturday, December 28, the *sun *rose at 8:01 a.m. and will set at 4:40 p.m. giving 8 hours 39 minutes of daylight hours. On Saturday, January 4, the sun will rise at 8:02 a.m. and set at 4:47 p.m. to give 8 hours 45 minutes of daylight hours (These values are for Moncton, New Brunswick). *This Week's Planet Roundup * *Mercury *is hidden in conjunction with the Sun. *Venus *(about -4.5) is dropping lower in evening twilight every day. Look southwest. *Mars *(magnitude +0.8) rises around 1:00 a.m. It's highest in the south before the first light of dawn. *Jupiter *(magnitude -2.7) glares low in the east as twilight fades, then rises higher in the east all evening. It blazes highest in the middle of the night. *Saturn *(magnitude +0.6) is well up the southeast as dawn begins to brighten. Look for it far to the lower left of Mars and far below brighter Arcturus.
