Tonight's sky
Friday 30 October 2026 · anywhere in the US · peabody.kids/space/sky
Colour the Moon as you see it.
Tonight it is: Waning gibbous, 70% lit.
- Look for, after dark:
- ☐ Saturn: east, 3 fists above the ground
- ☐ the Moon
- ☐ a shooting star
I saw ______________________________________________
Clouds? ☐ none ☐ some ☐ lots
Next shower: the Southern Taurids, night of 4–5 November 2026. A quiet one. Look at the Moon instead.
Worked out ahead with astronomy-engine for the middle of the US. A grown-up goes out too. Never look at the Sun.
About this sheet
