Observation Post 3/6

Observation Post
Week of 3/2

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 also observed the constellation of Pegasus, the Winged Horse. Another observed constellation was Orion, the hunter. Using the location of Orion, and Orion's belt, I was able to locate what I belive was Eridanus, the river. Although there were few stars that indicated these, I was able to locate and observe what I believe are the locations of Lepus, the hare, and Columba, the dove. I also observed multiple phases of the moon, including a waxing gibbous, and a full moon.
