Saturn is putting in its best appearance of the year this week. The planet is at opposition — it lines up opposite the Sun in our sky. It rises around sunset, and it’s visible all night long. It’s in good view in the southeast by the time the sky gets fully dark. The planet’s also closest to us for the year, so it’s at its brightest — like a bright golden star.
