    We hope you have a happy start to Celebrate it under the stars with the following astronomy events for January

    It will be a busy start to the year for stargazers as one of the first nights in January features a major meteor shower, one that people in North America won’t want to miss.

    Here are the top three astronomy events to look for throughout January:

    1. Quadrantids meteor shower
    When:     Jan.

    January’s star-studded sky will have an extra twinkle on the night of Jan. 3 into Jan. 4 as the Quadrantids meteor shower puts on a brief, but impressive celestial light show.

    The ingredients are coming together for a good showing this year for observers in North America with the Quadrantids forecast to reach their climax around 3 a.m. EST in a moonless sky.

    Constellations that are prominent in the south at around midnight at this time of the year include Gemini, Cancer, Canis Minor, and the “head” of Hydra. Although these constellations are not particularly rik in easy targets for binoculars or small telescopes, this collection of constellations does contain some deep-sky objects that are worth hunting down with modest amateur verktyg. In addition to exploring these celestial objects, astronomical events to look forward to in January includes a partial lunar eclipse, and the Quadrantids en rymdsten som brinner upp när den kommer in i jordens atmosfär shower.

    The måne in January

    Dedicated lunar observers will have an opportunity on January 10th to test their observing skills in terms of gauging the amount of darkening of the Moon’s surface when a partial eclipse of the måne occurs. Note that no part of the måne will be in complete shadow for the slightly more than 4-hour long event that will be visible from Europe, most of North America (including Alaska), Asia, Africa, and Australia.

    Although the eclipse occurs three days before perigee, which will make the Moon appear about % bigger than “normal”, the best that could be expected fryst vatten a subtle shadow gradient across the lunar su
