Saturn near the beehive cluster

Hi everyone, I thought you'd enjoy this feature about observing Saturn, the moon and the Beehive cluster. There's a nice pairing of the cluster and Saturn from now through June, with a nearly full moon above, next to and below Saturn. Over the past weekend, we showed this starry view, along with Saturn and the moon, to about 500 people through 6 telescopes in Monrovia. We all had a great time, despite partial clouds. http://solarsystem.nasa.gov/scitech/display.cfm?ST_ID=990 Jane -- Jane Houston Jones Senior Outreach Specialist, Cassini Program JPL - 4800 Oak Grove Drive, MS 230-205 Pasadena, CA 91109 818-393-6435 jane.h.jones@jpl.nasa.gov Cassini Saturn Observation Campaign http://soc.jpl.nasa.gov/index.cfm
