Observation Post 2/13

Observation Post
Week of 2/9

The majority of my observations were made at around 8:00 at night and at 5:30 in the morning. They were done in a moderate to cold temperature. The sky on some days was clear while other days were cloudy. I did my observations at home, and on my way to school. On the days with the cloudy sky no observations could have been made. On the days that were not cloudy I observed multiple things. I observed multiple planets, including Venus and Mars. I also observed the consellation of Pegasus, the Winged Horse. Another observed constellation was what I believe to be Orion, the hunter. I was able to locate these two constellations based upon their in a sense, giveaways. For Pegasus it is the great square, and for Orion it is the belt. I observed the constellation of Taurus, the Bull, relative to Orion. I also observed multiple phases of the moon, including a waning gibbous, a third quarter, and a waning crescent moon.
