November 23, 2025 Saturn has lost its rings

Saturn has lost its rings! Set up your telescope tonight to see the rings edge-on. You’ll spot it easily as the bright object (0.9 magnitude) below the great square of Pegasus in the southeastern sky. This only happens every 15 years. So, invite some friends to enjoy the view.
