Eyes on the Sky: April 9 thru April 16

[magic612]

Venus may be moving away from the Pleiades this week, but it is still moving through Taurus the Bull, so check out the other superb open cluster there, the Hyades. Also, Saturn reaches opposition later this week, so it's a great time to point a small telescope at the ringed planet and try to spot some of it's brighter moons as well.

Wishing you all clear and dark skies!
