Saturn?
Hiya,
At around 7.15am this morning I went out into the garden and looked up at the moon and saw a small object to the left of it. Could this be the planet Saturn ,as they were the only two objects visible at this time ? Thanks in advance - Dave B

Thanks in advance - Dave B It probably was Saturn which was 4 degrees (about 8 moon widths) away from the moon this morning. Regards Chris

Thanks in advance - Dave B I saw this as well at 7.30am and rolling back time with Starry Night shows it to indeed be Saturn, at about 8pm relative the moon, if clock hands are the best way of describing relative positions !
