This November, tree celestial events will light up the night sky, offering a treat for stargazers. These events coincide with the arrival of colder air in North America during November, making it a perfect time to bundle up and revel in the cosmos.

Longer nights provide ample opportunities to observe stars, planets, and meteors after dark.

Here are the top three astronomy events to mark on your November calendar:

November 3: Jupiter Opposition

November is prime month for spotting Jupiter in the night sky, thanks to the planet reaching opposition. At this point, Jupiter appeared on the opposite side of the Earth from the sun, rendering it closer to our planet and more radiant than many stars and other celestial bodies in the sky.
