The position of Jupiter in the sky
You should be able to glimpse Jupiter in the predawn sky late this week. The giant planet lies 5° high in the east-northeast 30 minutes before sunrise this morning and gains a little altitude with each new day. Jupiter shines at magnitude –2.0, which makes it plenty bright enough to see against the twilight glow
The position of Mercury in the sky
Mercury returns to the evening sky during June’s second week. This evening, it shines at magnitude –1.0 and appears 6° high in the west-northwest 30 minutes after sunset. If you have trouble finding the innermost planet with your naked eyes, sweep just above the horizon with binoculars

Monday, June 18
You’ll want to get up early this morning to witness a beautiful twilight gathering: A waning crescent Moon joins the brilliant planetary duo of Venus and Jupiter. The scene will be stunning with naked eyes or binoculars, but the extra light-gathering ability of binocs also should reveal the Pleiades star cluster (M45) some 5° above Jupiter

The waxing gibbous Moon is to the lower right of the star Spica. Saturn is less than 5 degrees above Spica. Look for the Moon in the southwest sky an hour after sunset.
See all five visible planets in early July 2012
You can see five visible planets in early July 2012. Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn
Three of the five visible planets – Mercury, Mars and Saturn – pop out into the western part of the sky as dusk ebbs into darkness. The other two – Jupiter and Venus – beam in the east during the wee hours before sunrise.
Here’s how to locate the evening planets. They are Mercury, Mars and Saturn. Look in the west, around 45 to an hour minutes after sunset. You need to look that early, or you’ll miss Mercury, which sets soon after the sun. Mercury, the innermost planet, sets about 90 minutes after the sun at mid-northern latitudes.
So Mercury is closest to the sunset point. Mars is next highest in the sky. Saturn is higher up than Mars. This line-up holds true across Earth, in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Our featured chart at top of this post shows the ecliptic – the Earth’s orbital plane projected onto the sphere of stars. Because Earth and all the other planets orbit the sun on nearly the same plane, the planets are always found on or near the ecliptic. As seen from Earth, the ecliptic also delineates the sun’s yearly path in front of the backdrop stars.
Here’s how to locate the two morning planets. There’s really no problem here. You can’t miss Jupiter and Venus in eastern predawn sky, assuming your sky is clear. They’re the two most brilliant starlike objects in all the heavens, with Venus being the brighter of these two dazzling beauties. Venus is also closer to the predawn horizon. You’ll see Venus and Jupiter gracing July early dawns all month long. In mid-July 2012, the moon will sweep into this part of the sky, providing some wonderful early morning sky scenes and great photo opportunities.

Thursday, November 1 :Conjunction of moon and jupiter
The waning gibbous Moon rises just minutes after brilliant Jupiter this evening, and the two cross the sky together all night.
The pair lies among the background stars of central Taurus .

The young waxing crescent moon pairs up with the planets Mercury and Venus after sunset June 10.
The first two celestial objects to pop out after sunset on June 10 are the moon and the dazzling planet Venus. That’s because the moon and Venus rank as the second-brightest and third-brightest heavenly bodies, respectively, after the sun. Look for them to shine low in the west-northwest (over the sunset point on the horizon) some 30 minutes after sunset. Then watch for the fainter planet Mercury to shine over Venus about 45 to 60 minutes after sundown.

Find Summer Triangle ascending in the east on June evenings
It’s almost the solstice. Here in the Northern Hemisphere, the days are long, the sun is at its most intense for the year, and the weather is warm – but not as warm as it will be later this summer. And the summer sky is with us, too. The famous asterism known as the Summer Triangle is now ascending in the eastern sky on these June evenings.
Everything you need to know: June solstice 2013
Gallery: The solstice as seen from Stonehenge
The Summer Triangle is not a constellation. Instead, this pattern consists of three bright stars in three separate constellations – Deneb in the constellation Cygnus the Swan, Vega in the constellation Lyra the Harp, and Altair in the constellation Aquila the Eagle.
Learn to recognize the Summer Triangle asterism now, and you can watch it all summer as it shifts higher in the east, then finally appears high overhead in the late northern summer and early northern autumn sky.
How can you learn to recognize it? First, just go outside in early evening, face east, and try to notice three particularly bright stars. Those stars will probably be Vega, Deneb and Altair.
An asterism isn’t the same thing as a constellation, by the way. Constellations generally come to us from ancient times. In the 1930′s, the boundaries of 88 constellations were officially drawn by the International Astronomical Union.
On the other hand, asterisms are whatever you want them to be. They’re just patterns on the sky’s dome. You can also make up your own asterisms, in much the same way you can recognize shapes in puffy clouds on a summer day.
But some asterisms are so obvious that they’re recognized around the world. The Summer Triangle – a large triangular pattern consisting of three bright stars in three different constellations – is one of these. The Summer Triangle appears in the east at nightfall on June evenings, swings high overhead in the wee hours after midnight and sits rather high in the west at daybreak

Most “super” supermoon of 2013 on June 22-23
Tonight for June 22, 2013

For many countries, the moon appears about as full in the June 22 evening sky as it does on the evening of June 23. This full moon is not only the closest and largest full moon of the year. It also presents the moon’s closest encounter with Earth for all of 2013. The moon will not be so close again until August, 2014. In other words, it’s not just a supermoon. It’s the closest supermoon of 2013.
We astronomers call this sort of close full moon a perigee full moon. The word perigee describes the moon’s closest point to Earth for a given month. Two years ago, when the closest and largest full moon fell on March 19, 2011, many used the term supermoon, which we’d never heard before. Last year, we heard this term again to describe the year’s closest full moon on May 6, 2012. Now the term supermoon is being used a lot. Last month’s full moon – May 24-25, 2013 – was also a supermoon. But the June full moon is even more super! In other words, the time of full moon falls even closer to the time of perigee, the moon’s closest point to Earth. The crest of the moon’s full phase in June 2013, and perigee, fall within an hour of each other.
