Beautiful Sturgeon Moon.... Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

Beautiful Sturgeon Moon....



What To Watch For In The Night Sky?
This Week: August 3-9,2020

This week begins with Monday's full Moon—
variously known as the "Sturgeon Moon",
"Red Moon and "Grain Moon, " among many other names.

Whatever it's called,
its rise and set when full
will take place close to sunset and sunrise,

respectively.

In a clear sky it will look glorious.

So too will a waning full Moon's assault
on Mars later this week when,
on Saturday and Sunday,
it gets to within a 0.8° of the "red planet."

That's what stargazers call an occultation.
Thursday will also see Mars at perihelion—
the closest it gets to the Sun in 2020—
and there's a chance to see Venus and Mercury.

This is also a great week to find
the beautiful constellation of Delphinus,
the Dolphin, close to the can't-miss-it "Summer Triangle."
All is explained, timed and mapped below.

The picture map is added here.

the most important thing is to be able to watch
this Beautiful Sturgeon Moon
do not miss it!

ENJOY!
