HAPPY THANKSGIVING STAR GAZERS!

THE SUMMER STARS ARE RETREATING BEHIND THE SUN, AS THE WINTER STARS ENTER THE GAME.

FIND A BIG OPEN AREA SO YOU CAN SEE BOTH SIDES OF THE SKY AND AT NINE THIRTY LOOK WEST FOR THE SUMMER TRIANGLE ASTERISM!

AS A REMINDER; THOSE STARS ARE IN ORDER OF BRIGHTNESS, VEGA, ALTAIR, AND DENEB.

EACH NIGHT, THESE STARS WILL SET EARLIER AND EARLIER, BUT EVENTUALLY THEY LL DIP TOO LOW IN LATE DECEMBER.

NOW TURN AROUND.

IN THE EAST, YOU LL FIND ONE OF THE EASIEST CONSTELLATIONS TO SPOT: ORION THE HUNTER.

WITH HIS DISTINCTIVE THREE STARS IN A ROW HE S CHARGING UPWARD INTO THE SKY AND INTO WINTER.

THE BELT IS DEFINITELY COOL, BUT THE BRIGHTER STARS IN ORION ARE GREAT TO CHECK OUT TOO.

THE BLUE GIANT STAR TO THE RIGHT IS CALLED RIGEL AND THE REDDER STAR TO THE LEFT IS BETELGEUSE.

DIGEST YOUR HOLIDAY MEAL WHILE YOU KEEP LOOKIN UP!
