Skywatch

Leonids
Bundle up and get outside after midnight on November 17th to see the peak of the Leonids meteor shower as “shooting stars” appear to radiate outwards from the constellation Leo. The waxing gibbous Moon will set shortly after midnight, so the best time for meteor-gazing will be in the wee hours of November 18th when the skies will be nice and dark.

Double Cluster in Perseus
Seek out the sparkling Double Cluster in Perseus – two side by side open star clusters NGC 884 and NGC 869.
