Gets really close to Jupiter on the 21st. About 25˚ down and to the left of super bright Venus. Venus - This is the highlight of every morning. As a crescent (in binoculars) in the beginning of the month, it is VERY bright, and easily visible about 30˚ above SE horizon all month.  It rises as early as 4:00am. If you have binoculars or a telescope, you should easily see it transform from a crescent to a half phase throughout the month, about the size of Jupiter in your view. Mars - Mars is already in the S around sunset, traveling toward the W and setting a little after 11pm each night. Moves from Aquarius to Pisces throughout the month. Absolutely gorgeous and bright and red right now, but not so breathtaking in a telescope. However, if you’re looking at it on the evening of the 6th, Neptune is right nearby (telescope needed). Saturn - Your last chance for a little while is the first two weeks in December. It’s only about 10˚ above the SW horizon, and sets less than an hour after sunset. Dec 13th, 14th – Geminid Meteor Shower – A decent year for the Geminids, given the moon will be just shy of first-quarter (less than half-lit and setting after 11pm), giving us a shot at over 100 meteors per hour later in the night, depending on your light pollution levels.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.
