See the Triangle tonight
The First Quarter Moon forms a triangle with the Red Planets – Mars and Regulus Star in the evening twilight from 21:00 / 9pm. (Click here for enlarge image, the map is shown for tonight at 10pm.)
The Sun will pass through the Leo from 10 August to 16 September, so better hunting for more Deep Sky Object lists in Leo by NGC Number and IC number for large telescope before your last views of Leo (The Lion) till back in autumn2010.
See the SkyMap of Leo.
Keys:-
NGC = Abberviation for the New General Catalogue of Nebula, Galaxies and Clusters of stars.
IC = Abberviation for Index Catalogue that still referred the objects by their IC numbers.
