Skywatchers will this weekend be treated to the sight of Saturn close to a bright moon. The ringed planet — close to its brightest of the year — will appear to the right side of the moon, as seen from the Northern Hemisphere on Friday, Nov. 28, sit very close to it on Saturday, Nov. 29, and appear on its left side on Sunday, Nov. 30. The close conjunction occurs because the moon orbits Earth on roughly the same plane — the ecliptic — as planets orbit the sun.
