On Thursday evening, the constellation Crescent and Virgo can be seen with the naked eye. Uranus is above and below Jupiter 12b/ponce brooks The comet can already be observed using a portable telescope, and it will also be possible to see two eclipses of the two stars – the Svábhegy Observatory informed MTI on Tuesday.
Combination of Crescent and Pisces
On the evening of April 11, around 9:30 p.m., a thin crescent moon and the star cluster Phaistius can be seen in the western sky. If you're looking for an unobstructed western horizon, you should look west, where you can see the thin crescent at 25 degrees, and from there the stars of the open cluster Fiastyúk can also be seen 1.5 degrees to the right. At 8:45 p.m., both celestial bodies will shine in their full glory in the dark sky, the announcement said.
On the Moon, the pale glow of the unlit side, the ash-gray light, can also be observed with the naked eye. In Vyastyok, which is a bit foggy, people with sharp eyes can see about seven faint stars, the Seven Sisters – they point out.
As they say, with a simple hand-held telescope, the view unfolds more beautifully. On a 12 percent, 3-day crescent, you can also see the Moon's rim craters and lunar seas glowing in grayish-gray light, and Fiastyús, which rises in the same field of view as the Moon, refracted into dozens of bright stars.

If the western horizon is clear, additional celestial phenomena can be observed. At 20:40 pm, a bright star-like celestial body, Jupiter, can be seen at a depth of 12 degrees below the surface of the moon. Through a portable telescope, small Galilean moons can also be seen around the planet. Using a portable telescope, a faint, slightly green star-like dot, the planet Uranus, can be seen barely two degrees above Jupiter.
The faint, hazy patch of Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks can also be seen 3 degrees below Jupiter to the right. In a larger pair of binoculars or astronomical telescope, the comet appears as a small, blurry speck, spewing a longer plume upward, the ad said.
As they point out, now is the best time to observe Uranus and Comet Pons-Brooks one last time. Although Uranus is already visible in the morning sky in July, we will have to wait another 71 years for the comet to return – they write.
The thin crescent also covers two stars, which can be best admired using a tripod astronomical telescope at higher magnification, the ad says. The star HD24899 enters the constellation Taurus behind the unlit side of the Moon at 20:30 in Budapest. The faint, 7.2-magnitude star is a beautiful sight because it is surrounded by the moon's dark rim glowing with a greyish light. The star exits at 9:27 p.m., and is now at the bright edge of the crescent beneath Mare Crisium.
Dilemma Podcast
the dilemma femina.hu's podcast, covering a topic worth discussing in each podcast. Consumption and extravagance exist in many areas of the world and in our lives. The last episode deals with this topic. I wonder what drives us to constantly buy, and are flu products responsible for this? How can we control our desire to possess?

A brighter stellar eclipse can also be seen, even though the moon is about to set at that time. At 22:51, the star 36 Tauri with a magnitude of 5.2 enters behind the dark edge of the Moon, which at that time is only 5 degrees high. However, with a telescope, the small star disappearing behind the orange moon will provide a fascinating sight – highlighting the statement.
As they write, between April 11 and 13, interested parties can also observe the craters of the ever-waxing vernal crescent at the Svábhegy Star Observatory.
