This is entirely dependant on your latitude.\nIf you go to Amazon, and search for planisphere, you will find an array of maps which you can use to determine when stars will be visible. You will need to know your latitude before you buy one though, as they are calibrated for particular values. You should be able to find the same in a local bookshop, and these will probably be at the correct latitude for you.

Greetings,\n\nIt was probably Sirius the Dog Star.  One of the closer stars to us and when it twinkles it appears red, blue, green, and is really big for a star.\n\nIt was NOT a planet, as planets don't twinkle.  Jupiter is bright, but it's not very high up in the sky at 8:00 pm.  Venus is currently only up in the morning.  Saturn is a dim yellowish star in Gemini.  Mars is a dim orange star between Taurus and the Pleides.\n\nSo to sum up, it was most likely Sirius.\n\nYou can use the link provided for a interactive star chart that is easy to read and use.  Simply plug in your city and state and the time of day/night you want to see and most of the visible stars will show up along with the planets, comets, and a few other deep space objects.\n\n-matt

Depends on your location.  From the United States, you can find the constellation Scorpius low in the southern sky primarily during the summer months.  Currently (early April), it's at its highest around 5am DST.  Early next month, it will be most visible around 3am DST.  For each successive month, it's at its highest about two hours earlier than in the previous month, so by early August it will be best seen around 9pm DST.  It's low in the sky, however; even from the southern states, its brightest star Antares never rises higher than about 1/3 of the way from horizon (where the sky meets the ground) to zenith (directly overhead).\n\nA side-note; you may notice a very bright "star" this spring and summer, somewhat higher and to the right of Scorpius; this would be the planet Jupiter.\n\nA good site that generates a sky chart for any location can be found at:\nhttp://www.heavens-above.com

The Geminids ramp up over a few days, and should be visible most of the night, from around 10PM to dawn. Basically you need a location where you can see as many stars as possible.

I would have to say Capicorn you can see it easily in December. Even though I am a Virgo, lol.

Jupiter is a wonderful planet to observe. Right now it is in the constellation of Libra.\n\nAssuming you are near Miami Jupiter rises about 2 in the morning. You can see it low and rising in the Southeast until about 6 when the sky starts to get bright.\n\nCheck the interactive chart below. Jupiter is an olive-drab circle with a curly 4 shape on it. Just set the time to London Time, so 6 in the morning Florida time would be 11:00:00 London Time.\n\nEnjoy!

There is actually a comet passing by Earth this month.  To calculate where the comet will be visible go to\nhttp://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/horizons.cgi#top\n\nType in information for comet 73P

It varies place to place and even month to month.\n\nWhat one needs to consider are three things: which are the brightest stars in the sky (as these are going to be the first to be seen as the sky darkens), what times of year are these stars visible RIGHT AT DUSK, and from which parts of the globe are they visible?\n\nThe brightest star in the night sky is Sirius.  Siruis is located in the southern sky, but is visible from the vast majority of the Northern hemisphere because it isn't too far south.  If you're in a part of the world where Sirius can be seen (all but Canada, Alaska, Russia, Scandanavia, etc), and at a time of year when it is in the sky right at dusk (mid winter to early spring), then Sirius (also called the Dog Star) will be the first to be visible.\n\nOther bright stars:\n\nCanopus (visible primarily from the southern hemisphere and the tropics or subtropics)\n\nArcturus (visible throughout the Northern hemisphere, would be in evening sky probably from spring to mid summer)\n\nAlpha Centauri (the closest of all stars, visible primarily from the southern hemisphere and the tropics or subtropics)\n\nVega (the one in the movie Contact, visible throughout the northern hemisphere, in evening sky around late summer through autumn)\n\nCapella (visible throughout the Northern hemisphere, probably in evening sky around winter into early spring)

Yes. Venus and Mars will be in conjunction on February 21 and November 3 with separations of 28 and 42 minutes of arc ( lunar diameter = 30 minutes of arc) Venus and Jupiter will be in conjunction on July 1 and October 26 with separations of 24 minutes and 1 degree. Mars and Jupiter will be in conjunction on October 17 with a separation of 25 minutes of arc. So, the October 17 - November 3 period should be rather spectacular with Mars, Jupiter and Venus very close to each other.

It's not visible at any time, because from September 23 – October 22, the sun is in it, so you can't see it.  Your best chances of seeing it are in the early evening about four months before then, around June or July.

Betelgeuse is a constituent of Orion, which should be visible in the evening at this time of year.  Use a star chart to see exactly which star of Orion it is.

That would be comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann starting about the end of April and until about June 15th.  Uncertain how bright (as with most comets) will become, but it will be relatively close to earth at 11 million miles.  It should be visible as it travels through the constellation of Hercules and glide past the star Vega on its journey.  On May 11, it  will be in the constellation Cynus the Swan (aka the Northern Cross).  It will continue through Pegasus and Pisces, and dim from view in Cetus in mid June.
