8-10 PM
Tonight, I observed stars with a full moon partially obscuring Gemini (it was the first night in days without lots of clouds). I identified the stars Castor, Pollux, Aldebaran, Sirius, Capella, Rigel, Betelgeuse, Procyon, and Polaris. I noticed a few spring constellations (which I couldn't name), as well as Perseus, Orion, Ursa Minor, Ursa Major, Auriga, Gemini, Taurus, Canis Major, Canis Minor, Lepus, and Columbo. Finally, I noticed the miscellaneous objects Horsehead Nebula, Orion's Belt, The Kids, M42, M35, M36-8, M1, and M45.
