Digitaltrends reports that NASA has
released its August review of what to look
for in the night sky over the next month.

sky-watchers an exciting
planetary pairing.
Mars will come into a close conjunction
with Mars and the ice-giant Uranus, which
will be visible for the early part of August.
NASA says that while Uranus won't be visible
to the naked eye, both planets can be seen
at the same time with just a pair of binoculars. .
According to NASA, after bringing Mars into
our field of view, Uranus can be found by
looking northwest for a tiny, blue colored disc.
On August 15, the moon will
appear right next to Jupiter.
Like Mars and Uranus, they’ll make
a great pairing through binoculars,
and you’ll also likely catch a glimpse
of Jupiter’s four largest moons, NASA, via Digitaltrends.
August also features Saturn
as it transitions to become
visible all night long.
The planet should appear around 9 P.M.
low in the east as a steady,
yellow point of light.
August also marks the return of the Perseid
meteor shower, however, the full moon is likely
to obscure all but the brightest shooting stars
