Part 2: Observing Planets
Using Stellarium, look up what planets are above the horizon tonight.
- What planets are above the horizon tonight during lab? Record their right ascensions and declinations.
- Make a detailed Finder Chart of the planets that are up tonight. Be sure to label the constellations and the planets. You may use this same chart over a few weeks to track the movement of the planets.
We will now go on the roof to make observations using VAO.
