Moon Meets Antares Again (evening)
As the stars emerge after dusk on Saturday, August 30, the star that marks Scorpius' heart, bright reddish Antares will twinkle less than a palm's width to the upper left (or 6 degrees to the celestial east) of the waxing crescent moon in the western sky - their second meeting this month. Before long, the up-down row of fainter stars that form the claws of the scorpion will appear above the moon. The grouping will sink into the trees by about 10 pm local time. Hours later, residents in a zone extending from Eastern Antarctica north to southern New Zealand can watch the moon occult Antares around 11:45 UT.
