The Moon waxes in the evening sky this week, reaching First Quarter
onthe 19th at 1:27 pm Eastern Daylight Time. Try to spot her very
slender crescent shortly after sunset on the 12th. Each succeeding
night she climbs higher in the sky, encountering bright Jupiter on the
evening of the 17th. She finishes the week high above the stars of
Orion, the Hunter.
Keep your eyes peeled this week fora visitor from the outer solar
system. Comet C/2011 L4 (Pan-STARRS) will be swinging into the early
evening sky, hopefully becoming visible by the end of evening nautical
twilight (about an hour after local sunset). Named for the Panoramic
Survey Telescope andRapid Response System, a program largely funded by
the Air Force Research Laboratory to detect potentially hazardous
Near-Earth Asteroids, it has been putting on a good show for our
friends in the Southern Hemisphere. Discovered atthe Pan-STARRS
facility on Haleakala, Hawai'i in June, 2011, the comet passed
perihelion on March 10. Unfortunately for us it will not be visible
against a dark sky, but folks with a low, flat western horizon should
have a decent whack at it in fading eveningtwilight. Those of us in
the DC areashould get our first good chance to spot it on the evening
of the 12th, when it will be about five degrees tothe "left" of the
very thin crescent Moon. Use binoculars to look for the comet, which
will appear as a diffuse swatch of light. You may even see a tail
pointing upward fromthe horizon as the sky continues to darken. On
each succeeding eveningthe comet should be a little bit higher as it
slowly drifts northward against the horizon. It currently shines at
second magnitude so if the sky is exceptionally clear you may be able
to spot it with the unaided eye. If you have a digital camera and a
tripod you can try yourhand at capturing an image. Point your camera
due west between 45 minutes to an hour after sunset. Use manual
settings to set the focus at infinity and try a shutter speed of about
5 seconds at f/5.6 with an ISO rating of 100 to 400. Use the
time-delay function to release the shutter, and bracket your images
with different exposuretimes. Take lots of images; photonsare free!
Later in the evening take a few minutes to enjoy the bright stars
ofthe Great Winter Circle as they grace the darkening sky. By the
endof evening twilight you'll find Orion west of the meridian as his
faithful dog Canis Major crests the southern horizon. Sirius, the
brightest star in the sky, marks this constellation and culminates
asfull darkness falls. Sirius is one of the closest stars to the solar
system, just over eight light-years away. It was one of the first
stars to have a companion detected by variations in its proper motion
through space. This companion, the first "white dwarf" star to be
discovered, was found by the American optician Alvan Graham Clark
while testing an 18.5-inch telescope lens in January 1862. Sirius is
one of my favorite stars to observe with the naked eye. Turbulence in
our atmosphere, especially after the passage of a strong cold front,
causes the star to "twinkle" furiously, often rapidly cycling through
all the colors of thevisible spectrum in addition to its usual steady
blue tint.
Jupiter continues to grace the earlyevening sky. Daylight time has
given the giant planet another few weeks of good observing time before
he slips into the turbulent airabove the western horizon. You can
still easily spot his four bright moons, discovered by Galileo in
1610, with binoculars or a small telescope, and larger instruments
will give a fine view of his more prominent cloud bands. Point a
four-inch or larger telescope at him at around 8:30 pm EDT on the
13thor the 18th and you should be able to glimpse the famous Great Red
Spot, an Earth-sized storm in the planet's atmosphere that has
persisted for over three centuries!
Saturn once again waits in the wings for Jupiter to exit the starry
stage. By the time Old Jove sets at around 1:00 am, Saturn is climbing
higher in the southeast. Night owls will be rewarded with the sublime
view of the cream-colored planet set among his spectacular rings, and
owners of six-inch or larger scopes can find the planet nestled among
half a dozen of its many small moons.
