Sunset at 7:10 pm. The Moon rises 2 hours after sunset and is nearly full. Other objects include the fabulous Orion Nebula, the Double Cluster in Perseus, the beautiful double star Gamma Andromedae, the Beehive star cluster in Cancer, and the Pleiades star cluster in Taurus. All make for interesting objects to observe. The planet Uranus will make an appearance early in the evening right after sunset, though a telescope will be needed to view it. Venus, Mars and Saturn will make a close grouping just before sunrise. Jupiter, Neptune and Mercury will be too close to the sun to be seen.
