Don’t Miss Saturday’s Sky Show As The Moon Joins The ‘Planet Parade’

The moon will this Saturday, Aug. 17, join a “planet parade” building in the morning sky. As it does so, it will brush past the Pleiades, a sparkling open cluster of stars that’s best known for dominating the winter night sky. Best seen about an hour before sunrise, bright planets Venus and Jupiter will continue to dominate in the east while Saturn brightens in the south. Rising below Venus and Jupiter will be Mercury, though Uranus and Neptune — despite also being in the sky — are not visible to the naked eye.
