NASA’s skywatching tips for November include a meteor shower.

This month’s skywatching highlights include viewings of Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, a beautiful crescent moon, and the Leonid meteors.

On the morning of November 9, you can see a crescent moon hanging just beneath Venus in the early morning sky before sunrise.

A week later, on November 17, you can see a crescent moon sitting low in the southwest — this time by itself — in the twilight following sunset.

After sunset on November 20, Saturn makes an appearance.

Look toward the south to see the planet just above a quarter moon, with the pair joined by bright stars Fomalhaut and Altair.

Four days later, you’ll see an almost full moon close to Jupiter after sunset.

As November draws to a close, check out Venus rising in the morning with the bright Spica star nearby.

This month is prime time for the annual Leonid meteor shower. The shower, which features dust particles from comet Tempel-Tuttle, peaks overnight on November 17, with the most meteors visible between midnight and dawn on the 18.
