Mars, Saturn and moon to align in sky tonight
July 6th, 2008, 1:00 am · posted by grobbins
Astronomers are urging stargazers — especially those at the beach — to look just above the western horizon one hour after sunset tonight. Saturn, Mars and the bright star Regulus will form a line just to the right of a waxing crescent moon. The alignment can best be seen from coastal areas because they afford an excellent view of the western horizon. Saturn will be at the top of the alignment, followed by Mars and then Regulus, the brightest beacon in Constellation Leo.
