The observation of the rare event of Tonight August 6thThe “Kiss” Saturn – Neptune: In fact, the telescope is necessary to observe Nettuno, too far for the human eye. The Lord of the ringson the other hand, it could also be visible to the naked eye, but the telescope allows you to better observe its details. Not to be missed!
As the UAI explains, the conditions of observability of Neptune are practically identical to those of Saturnwith which he is in conjunction on August 6th. We can therefore identify it late in the evening and in the second part of the night (on the map the Heaven of 6 August 2025 at about 23.00).
Of course while Saturn is clearly visible to the naked eye – the specialized portal specifies – Neptune is below the threshold of perception of the human eye and requires the use of the telescope
We do not lack this rare event, which will really be excited.
