Xinhua News Agency, Tianjin, February 28th (Reporter Zhou Runjian) In March, the sky was wonderful. Astronomical experts have introduced that astronomical phenomena such as "the month ends together and the fifth month", "the second largest full moon of the year", "Samsung meeting moon", "Mercury west distance" and "Venus east distance" will be staged in turn.
On March 2nd, the first quarter of the month will "join" the star Bi Suyi, and "cover" the star Bi Suyi. If the weather is fine and the interested public is facing the southwest sky that night, you can watch this scene with the help of binoculars or astronomical telescopes.
"Supermoon (the full moon appears when the moon is at an apogee)" is an astronomical phenomenon that people have paid more attention to in recent years. There will be four "Super Moons" in 2020, which will take place on February 9, March 10, April 8 and May 7, respectively, and this time on April 8 is the annual "maximum full moon".
"This March 10th is the annual 'second largest full moon'. Since the full moon occurs in the early morning of the 10th, interested public can watch the full moon rising in the northeast on the evening of the 9th and watch it." China Shi Zhicheng, a member of the Astronomical Society and a member of the Tianjin Astronomical Society reminded.
In February, the angular distance between Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn is very close, and the phenomenon of Samsung “connection” can be seen every day before sunrise. "At dawn at March 18-19, the naughty 'Moon Girl' will pass Mars, Jupiter and Saturn in turn to form a 'Samsung Meeting Moon' scene, playing the romantic 'Star Moon Symphony'." Shi Zhicheng said.
The mysterious Mercury will stage a "western distance" on March 24, appearing low in the southeast at dawn. "But unfortunately, Mercury's declination is lower than the sun's declination, and Mercury's ground level is low, which makes it difficult to observe." Shi Zhicheng said.
Right now, Venus, known as "Venus," is in the best observation period. On March 25, Venus will usher in the "East Large Distance". At that time, the brightness of Venus will reach -4.5, such as a bright lamp hanging in the low altitude southwest, unusually eye-catching.
