9:00 p.m. Saturn is the yellow star in the Eastern sky, above it, are the Pleiades (plee-a-dees) or better known as The "7 Sisters".  There are actually more than 7, but these are very young, hot BLUE Stars! These are beautiful to view in a telescope or even inexpensive binoculars. Later, the Moon, Jupiter, and Regulus are in good view by 12:30 a.m. and stand high in the sky at first light.  Jupiter looks like a brilliant star to the upper right of the Moon as they climb into view. Regulus is a bright star to the Moon's right.
