*This Week's Sky at a Glance

Some night sky sights for October 26 - November 3*

On Monday, October 29, the *Moon* will go into its Full Phase meaning we
will see it all night giving a bit of extra light for spokes and goblins a
few days later. Expect higher high tides and lower low tides. This is
referred to as the *Hunter's Moon*.

The 'Summer Star' *Vega* is still the brightest star in the west during
fall evenings. Higher above it is *Deneb*. Farther off to Vega's left or
lower left is *Altair,* the third star of the Summer Triangle.

On Sunday morning, November 4, *clocks* 'fall back' an hour at 2 a.m. to
get that hour back we lost last spring.

On Saturday, October 27, the *Sun* rose at 7:56 a.m. and will set at 6:17
p.m. On Saturday, November 3, the sun will rise at 8:06 a.m. and set at
6:07 p.m..
*
This Week's Planet Roundup *

*Mercury* (magnitude -0.2) is having a poor evening apparition. Using
binoculars look for it about 30 minutes after sundown very low in the
southwest, to the lower right of Mars and the star Antares.
*
Venus* (magnitude -4.0) rises in darkness more than an hour before the
first glimmer of dawn. By dawn it's shining brightly in the east.

*Mars* (magnitude +1.2) remains low in the southwest in evening twilight.
It's upper left of similar-looking *Antares*; they widen from 6=B0 to 10=B0
apart this week.

*Jupiter* (magnitude -2.7) rises in the east-northeast shortly after dark.

*Saturn* is buried deep in the glow of sunrise.
