Author's Notes: Look for Venus and Saturn in the southwest. Four bright planets are visible until month's end, when Saturn departs. "That bright star" in the south-southwest after sundown is Jupiter. The moon joins the evening sky this week. Mars is slowly moving eastward with Taurus as the starry backdrop.
