Have you seen the seventh planet? This week's 'Hunter's Moon' brings a rare chance for you to easily find Uranus.
Uranus will be directly above it! As it gets darker and the Moon and Uranus rise higher int the night sky you may be able to see it with your naked eye. However, the wise planet-gazer will have a pair of binoculars or a small telescope handy for this one despite its apparent ease—after all, the Moon is still going to be pretty bright, so the glare might make things difficult.Not that you need to be in a rush.
All of Uranus’ moons are named after characters from the works of William Shakespeare and Alexander Pope.
