StarTrak... Harvest moon featured in October skies

By Hal Kibbey The early evening sky during the first week of October will be dominated by the moon, which will rise soon after sunset and seem to hang in the sky above the eastern horizon. The full moon closest to the September equinox, occurring on October 5 this year, is traditionally called the Harvest Moon because it lights the landscape soon after sunset, enabling .farmers to continue working in the fields to bring in the harvest. For a few days the moon rises only about 20 minutes later each night, instead of its usual 50 minutes later, so it provides bright light at a crucial time for farmers. The Harvest Moon will appear yellow when it rises, but its color will change to the usual white as it climbs above the dust and other particles in Earth’s atmosphere near the horizon. After the moon, Jupiter will probably be the first object you see during evening twilight as the huge planet appears in the southeast. Jupiter will be almost as bright during October as it was in September. When Jupiter is high in the sky each night, binoculars will show its four largest moons, first seen by Galileo in the 17th century. The Galilean moons appear as pinpoints of white light along a straight line on both sides of Jupiter, changing position hourly as they orbit the planet. Saturn will rise in the east during evening twilight in October and trail Jupiter across the southern sky all night. Saturn will be at its brightest for the year, reaching opposition on October 23 when it will be opposite the sun in our sky. But Jupiter will still be 14 times brighter! Look west of Saturn and north of Jupiter to find the Great Square of the constellation Pegasus the Winged Horse. How many stars can you see inside the Great Square? Keeping track of that number from night to night is one way to determine how clear your local sky is on any particular night. In most parts of North America, the clear skies of October offer the

No date has been announced for the wedding, which will take place at the Union Center Church of the Brethren, Nappanee. the engagement of their daughter Esther Elizabeth to Kevin Jay Miller.

last convenient opportunity until spring to see a maximum number of stars. Mars, the red planet, will be well up in the eastern sky just before dawn during October, beginning the month right above the white star Regulus. On October 7 a half hour before sunrise, Mars and Regulus will appear to be side by side above the eastern horizon. Mars will be to the left (northeast) and about equally bright. Actually Regulus is almost 70 light-years away (a light-year is the distance light travels in a year, about six trillion miles), while light takes only about 18 minutes to reach Earth from Mars. Regulus will continue upward past Mars as the month goes on. Mercury will have its poorest evening appearance of the year late in October for viewers in the Northern Hemisphere, showing barely above the west-northwest-em horizon about a half an hour after sunset. But Mercury will put on a fine show at that time for observers in the Southern Hemisphere. Venus will be out of sight behind the sun during October. It will become the brilliant “Evening Star” this winner. METEOR SHOWER Conditions will be favorable for watching the Orionid meteor shower when it peaks on the night of October 21-22, because the moon will be one day past new, guaranteeing that moonlight will not interfere. The Orionids take their name from the constellation Orion the Hunter, which is where they appear to originate. Actually they are dust particles from Halley’s Comet, left behind in the comet’s orbit as it passed by. Observers with a clear dark sky can expect to see 10-15 meteors per hour after midnight, when Orion will be fairly high above the eastern horizon. MOON PHASES The moon will be full on October 5 (the Harvest Moon), at third quarter on October 12, new on October 20, and at first quarter on October 28.
