This daily digest of celestial events highlights the top reason(s) to “look up” every day. Each entry succinctly offers essential event details, why it’s significant, and how to spy it in your sky, wherever you call home. The week’s most significant occurrences also feature a photograph or an
Astronomy magazine star chart to help you witness what’s going on overhead.

Unlike mobile apps that make you first pay a buck — yet can crash or still fail to deliver the same great information available to everyone else visiting their main website —
Astronomy magazine’s mobile site doesn’t charge visitors or penalize mobile night-sky enthusiasts. There’s no additional cost to access our up-to-date observing info on the go, meaning you’ll get the same information and graphics you’ll find at www.astronomy.com — regardless of whether you subscribe to our magazine or not. All you need is your smart phone and Internet access.
Direct your smart phone’s browser to
http://m.astronomy.com and check out what’s coming to a sky near you this week!
