See Mercury Through March 19th.
If you’re into “space stuff” like my kids are, this will be a neat opportunity.
It’s prime time for seeing Mercury:
Currently, Mercury is visible about 45 minutes after sunset, very near to the horizon, just to the south (left) of due west. Yet, if your sky is clear and there are no tall obstructions to your view (such as trees or buildings) you should have no trouble in seeing it as a very bright “star” shining with just a trace of a yellowish-orange tinge.
On Friday evening, Mercury will be shining at magnitude –1.1, which means that only one other object in that same evening sky will be brighter: Sirius (the brightest of all stars).
Here is MSNBC’s illustration of where it is located.
