This week’s sky features a bright gibbous Moon moving past Jupiter, Pollux, and Castor, becoming full on February 1. Highlights include the Moon occulting Regulus on February 2, with visible disappearance and reappearance times varying across North America. Watch Jupiter in Gemini with its moons, Io and Ganymede, showing transits and eclipses, while Saturn glows low in the west. The Winter Hexagon dominates the evening sky, with Sirius, Capella, and Betelgeuse prominent. Uranus and Neptune are telescopic targets. The week also marks the mid-point of winter, historically celebrated as Imbolc and now recognized on Groundhog Day. https://skyandtelescope.org/astronomy-news/observing-news/this-weeks-sky-at-a-glance-january-30-february-8/
