The Moon Meets The Pleiades On September 19-20, 2008
Be sure to mark your calendar for tomorrow night. For lucky observers in northeastern North America, eastern Canada, and western Europe, the evening of September 19-20, 2008 is your opportunity to watch the face of the peaceful gibbous Moon glide across the ancient blue beauty of the Plieades…
On Friday night, September 19, 2008, observers in northeastern North America, eastern Canada need to be outdoors and ready when the Moon begins to rise low in the east-northeast. If you live in Western Europe, the event takes place high in the sky just before dawn on the morning of September 20th. Don't come alone, bring binoculars or a telescope with you, because this is your chance to see the stars first disappear behind the Moon's bright limb and then reappear on the dark side.
