Small pieces of rock, with a big influence (just ask the dinosaurs).

Ceres Viewing, 2018

Post by Christopher K. »

Ceres is at opposition a few hours after sunrise tomorrow. That mean's it is at its brightest and will remain so through 5 February. Ceres culminates at 12:36am CST at effectively ninety degrees! The Starry Night Pro Plus is giving its magnitude as 6.4. Ceres will be a little less than a degree south-southeast of mag 6.0 K-class RS Cancri.
