Quarter 3/ Observation #3

Saint Patrick's Night (March.17,2012)
Waning Crescent Moon Tonight
9:00 P.M.-11 P.M.
In the western sky Jupiter and Venus can be seen with Venus climbing higher and Jupiter falling into the horizon; Mars and Saturn( the latter not visible with the naked eye) is in the eastern sky. The entire sky has a mixture of spring and winter constellations which coincides nicely with the warmer nights. I can see Gemini's Castor and Pollux along with the constellation Cancer; these are the only zodiacal constellations I happened to notice. Finally I could discern the area where Canes Venatici would be along with the parts of the ship: keel, stern, compass, and sail.
2 Hours Observed
