Original title: June stargazing guide: "Super Moon" and meteor showers add color to the most beautiful Milky Way According to the Purple Mountain Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences on the 1st, the most beautiful observation season of the Milky Way begins in June. Under the brilliant Milky Way, the stars compete to usher in their highlights, and the "supermoon" and meteor showers add color one after another. As summer arrives in the northern hemisphere, the starry sky also enters a season of transition. The handle of the Big Dipper begins to point south, heralding the arrival of summer in the starry sky. At night, the beautiful Milky Way rises from the southeast, entering the best viewing period. The "Summer Triangle" composed of Vega, Altair, and Deneb makes a brilliant appearance. Under the illumination of the Milky Way, the stars began to "date" closely, and the moon also joined the sky show, competing to show its most beautiful side. After entering June, the planetary "chase" in the eastern sky in the early morning continues. This time, the beautiful Venus and the distant Uranus will be in conjunction. On June 11, Venus and Uranus will appear. Experts say that since Uranus is at the limit of what can be seen with the naked eye, it is easy to be lost among the stars. The best time to find Uranus is when it is close to other bright celestial bodies. During this conjunction of Venus and Uranus, the bright Venus will become a "beacon" for finding Uranus. On June 14, a "supermoon" will appear in the sky, which is the "second largest full moon" of the year. By then, as long as the weather is fine, the public will have the opportunity to look up and see "a full moon falling on a jade plate". The full moon ends, and the mysterious Mercury takes the stage to show off its beauty. On the 16th, Mercury will reach its second western elongation this year. Interested people can capture the mysterious Mercury's true appearance through the bright Venus and star map software. On June 23, the moon will occult Mars in Antarctica and the South Pacific, while other regions will see a close conjunction of Mars and the moon. At 1 a.m. on that day, a waning moon will rise from the east hand in hand with the bright red Mars, and the brightness of Mars will reach 0.5 magnitude, which is very beautiful whether observed with the naked eye or a telescope. As the moon continues to move, the moon lady came near Venus on the 26th, and the Pleiades also joined this celestial gathering. Venus, the moon, and the Pleiades jumped onto the horizon one after another, forming a right triangle. Since these three celestial bodies are relatively bright, photography enthusiasts may wish to use their cameras to record this rare scene. On the 27th, Mercury will "take the place" of the Pleiades, and continue to form an "iron triangle" with Venus and the Moon in the sky. Finding this "double star and moon" scene is a little challenging, depending on whether Mercury can be found successfully and whether the weather is good. At the end of the month, Tianyu will broadcast a wonderful highlight - the June Bootes meteor shower will reach its peak. Usually, the active period of this meteor shower is between June 27 and July 5. According to the forecast, this year's meteor shower will not usher in a large-scale outbreak, but because of its high brightness and suitable moon phase, the public who are interested can try to catch the shining meteors of summer under the gorgeous Milky Way. |
