SUMMARY:Bright Moon Joins Jupiter (all night)
DESCRIPTION:At dusk on Friday\, January 10\, look to the east for the brilliant planet Jupiter shining several finger widths to the lower right (or celestial south) of the bright\, waxing gibbous moon – cozy enough to share the view in binoculars (orange circle). The duo will make a lovely photo opportunity when composed with some nice foreground scenery. As the moon and Jupiter climb higher\, the bright stars of winter will appear around them\, particularly yellowish Capella on their upper left (celestial north) and reddish Aldebaran to their right (celestial south). Both stars are part of the huge winter hexagon asterism. The moon and Jupiter will culminate due south around 9:30 p.m. local time and set in the west before dawn on Saturday morning. By then the diurnal rotation of the sky will lift the moon above Jupiter.

SUMMARY:Mars Closest to Earth (overnight)
DESCRIPTION:A few days before Mars reaches opposition on January 15-16\, the red planet will be closest to Earth on Saturday\, January 11 in the Americas. That night\, Mars will be 59.70 million miles\, 96.08 million km\, or 5.33 light-minutes away. You can view the bright reddish planet from late evening onward\, near the bright stars Pollux and Castor in Gemini. In a telescope\, the planet will exhibit its maximum apparent disk size of 14.6 arc-seconds\, revealing the greatest amount of surface detail this year. Mars will continue to brighten in the sky until opposition night. The difference in the two dates arises because the distance between Earth’s and Mars’ elliptical orbits is increasing at this time of the year.
