EarthSky News - Nov 27 - Watch for Mars and Spica

November 27 Watch for Mars and Spica by:

Before dawn around now … Watch for Mars and Spica Bright Jupiter is the 1st object you'll notice. Venus can only be seen very shortly before sunup. Mars and Spica are fainter, but close! Say farewell to Venus Did you see the conjunction of Venus and Jupiter before sunup around November 13? Since then, Jupiter has been climbing away from the sunrise, while Venus has been falling toward it. Astro festivals, star parties, workshops     The wintertime star parties are mostly at southerly latitudes. Time to plan a winter vacation!
