With the moon now well and later increase every day, it is a good time to catch the star light that glow in the air after sunset in the spring.Zodiacal -Light can best be seen from a dark location without city lights.Can reach an observation site with a higher height than the environment, the better.

An hour after sunset, Jupiter and Uranus are about 45 ° high in the western sky and slowly sink to the horizon.
Jupiter is easy to find that flames in size –2.2 - the brightest object in this area of heaven.A field star at 6th size.Uranus comprises 4 ″ and appears like a vague, gray, "flat" star.
Because of your view, Jupiter is flanked by all four Galilei mans.IIO is only located to the west of the planet with Ganymedes, Callisto and Europe in the east.10: 30.cst, shortly before the planet is in the midwest, Callisto passes to the right north of Europe.
