PeterCPC Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 If you download Stellarium (Free) it will show you what can be seen. Peter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waddensky Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Yes, get Stellarium and you will find out exactly what's up. Your pictures don't have enough context to determine the stars or planets you've seen. Not many bright objects currently in the NW. Capella is most striking, Castor and Pollux are in the neighbourhood too. The star right overhead could be Arcturus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
