🌌🔭 Mars and friends in the evening, and a brilliant pair of planets returns! What’s going on up there in March? Plenty! In the first week or so of March, you'll find Mars near the Pleiades star cluster high in the west in the few hours after sunset. Then wake up early to observe giant Jupiter and Saturn, which return as morning planets this month. You may also notice a couple of other reddish objects forming a line with Mars – that is, the stars Aldebaran, which forms the angry eye of Taurus the bull, and Betelgeuse, the shoulder of Orion. Pro-tip: If you zoom in exponentially on Mars, don’t forget to wave hello to our NASA Perseverance rover, which landed on the Red Planet on February 18th. Happy skywatching!
