Pleiades Near the Moon in Qatar This September
This September, the skies of Qatar will witness two astronomical phenomena, as the Pleiades star cluster will appear to approach the Moon twice. The first occurrence will be on September 3rd, and the second on September 30th, with the angular separation between them narrowing to just 1.1 degrees during the second event. Observers will be able to see the Pleiades and the Moon together with the naked eye from the upper eastern horizon during the period after moonset and before moonrise, providing a great opportunity to enjoy and observe these phenomena, which highlight the accuracy of astronomical calculations and offer skywatchers a chance to learn about celestial objects. These events present a unique opportunity to observe the stars approaching the Moon at their closest point in the sky.
