The sky now. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 35% lit, and sets at 10:38 PM. The next full Moon is Sunday, Oct 25. Look for Saturn, bright in the southeast.

The Orionids meteor shower is active, peaking around Oct 21: at its peak, up to about 20 meteors an hour can be seen from a dark site. The sky is forecast to stay clear: a good night to look up.
