The Night Sky for the Week of 9-7-25

This week's sky highlights include the waxing gibbous Moon appearing between Altair and Fomalhaut on September 5. On September 6, it forms an isosceles triangle with Saturn and Fomalhaut. The Full Moon occurs on September 7, with Saturn trailing closely behind. Vega and Arcturus dominate September skies, with the Perseus Double Cluster visible under dark conditions. Venus and Jupiter shine brightly at dawn, while Saturn approaches opposition. The Summer Triangle remains prominent, and the Dumbbell Nebula (M27) offers a stunning telescopic view. The waning gibbous Moon aligns with the Pleiades and Capella later in the week. Stargazing conditions improve as fall approaches. https://skyandtelescope.org/astronomy-news/observing-news/this-weeks-sky-at-a-glance-september-5-14/
