Description: What are some skywatching highlights in March 2022? Look for Saturn to join Venus and Mars in the morning sky around mid-month. In the evenings, find the Y-shaped constellation Taurus, the bull, high in the southwest. The Hyades star cluster forms the bull's face. Then take a tour of four easy-to-find stars that have known planets of their own orbiting them. 0:00 Intro 0:11 Morning planets 0:37 Hyades star cluster 2:11 Easy to find exoplanets 3:30 Moon phases Additional information about topics covered in this episode of What's Up, along with still images from the video, and the video transcript, are available at solarsystem.nasa.gov/skywatching/home.
