Darn. Too smoky where I live in California.

We have had a really good view two nights running.

I hope the sky will be clear enough. There was a sat dish on my house before I bought it and I have never used it - cable for me - so not sure which way it points.

I did look last night but it was very cloudy hope to have better luck tonight.

Let's hope it's not cloudy.

DH has it in the diary already!

Our sat dish faces North.

Interesting, I will take a look tonight thanks Info
( although I will have to look the other way, as if I followed the satellite dish advice I would be pointing at the Western sky on my own home.)

Thanks for that, our local village leaflet told us about it but I’d forgotten, let’s hope the clouds stay away.
Didn’t know that about the Satellite dishes, they all face the same way then? towards South?

This week will be the best chance to see Mars till 2035,
thats the year and not the time.
The planet will be visible in the eastern Sky.
Eastern Sky?
If you look straight at a domestic sattelite dish,and raise your right arm to an horizontal position.That will be east.
