    Bright Moon near the Pleiades (overnight)

    On Saturday night, October 19, the bright little Pleiades star cluster, also known as Messier 45, the Seven Sisters, the Hole in the Sky, and Matariki will be positioned several degrees to the west of the bright, waning gibbous moon. While the cluster's stars will be hard to see against the moon's glare, hiding the moon beyond the lower left (eastern) edge of binoculars will reveal them. The cluster is a highlight of the autumn/winter sky.
