Dark Skies Ripe For Jupiter And Saturn Viewing
Monday marked a historic event in the cosmos the first time in 800 years that Saturn and Jupiter aligned in the night sky. And for this unique moment in the universe, Utahns may have a better view than most due to its dark skies. Any Utahn with a clear view of the horizon should be able to take advantage of the state’s skies to watch the event, according to Rodger Fry, director of the Salt Lake Astronomical Society’s observatory at Stansbury Park. All you have to do is look to the southwest after sunset between 5:30 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. roughly 25 degrees above the horizon.
