Australian Monthly Night Sky Guides

Hello and welcome to the night sky guide for May. My name is Melissa Hulbert and I’m the Site Programs Coordinator at Sydney Observatory. Melissa tells us us where to find the constellations: Orion, Scorpius, Centaurus and Crux, and the star clusters: the Jewel Box, M6 and M7, as well as the best times to see the five planets visible with the unaided eye: Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Mars and Saturn and the best time to see the Eta-Aquarid meteor shower.
