SKY WATCH As evening twilight fades on the 1st, the crescent Moon and brilliant Venus C hover side by side, 10 degrees high in the southwest. Two nights later, on the 3rd, the Moon A dangles beneath Jupiter. During the month’s final 10 days, Venus approaches Jupiter and floats below it on the 29th and 30th. The Moon closes the month hanging below the planet L pair; all three brightest nighttime objects gather in the deepening twilight. Mercury con- E cludes its fine autumn apparition during the first four days of the month, now just 6 degrees N high at magnitude –0.9, low in the east just before dawn. At midmonth, Saturn rises before D 1: 30 A.M.; it is halfway to the zenith at dawn, in the southeast.
