Tonight's Sky in Carlini Base, 1月8日 (水) – 2025年1月9日 (木)
Mercury rise and set in Carlini Base
Fairly close to the Sun. Visible only before sunrise and/or after sunset.
Mercury is just 18 degrees from the Sun in the sky, so it is difficult to see.

Venus rise and set in Carlini Base
Try after sunset.
Venus sets shortly after sunset, so it is very close to the horizon. This makes it very difficult to observe. Venus is visible by day, but may be hard to find.

Mars rise and set in Carlini Base
Up most of the night.

Saturn rise and set in Carlini Base
View after sunset.
Saturn can best be seen in the hours just after sunset. Visibility improves as the sunlight fades. It is quite close to the horizon, making it fainter because the light has to cover a larger distance when traveling through the Earth's atmosphere. Make sure to get an unobstructed view.

Uranus rise and set in Carlini Base
Hard to see. Bring binoculars.
Uranus rises above the horizon for a short period only and remains very low in the sky, so it is unlikely to be visible. You may need binoculars.
