The orbit of the Moon around the Earth is almost in the same plane as the orbit of the Earth around the Sun only about 5 degrees off. When the Sun appears highest in the sky near the summer solstice, the full Moon opposite the Sun generally appears lowest in the sky. Particularly for Europe's higher latitudes, the full Moon nearest the summer solstice shines through more atmosphere than at other times of the year. This can give the full Moon a reddish or rose color for much the same reasons that a rising or setting Sun appears red.
For the Washington, DC area, on Monday, June 17, , the highest the full Moon will reach in the sky will be only Another tribe has also given this full Moon a name. This tribe is geographically scattered but mostly living in the mid-Atlantic region of the United States. This tribe's language is primarily English, but with a liberal smattering of acronyms, arcane scientific and engineering terms, and Hawaiian phrases cheerfully contributed by the Deputy Project Manager at the time.
Comprised of people from all backgrounds, this tribe is devoted to the study of the Moon. In lunisolar calendars the months change with the new Moon and full Moons fall in the middle of the lunar months. This full Moon is the middle of the fifth month of the Chinese calendar and Sivan in the Hebrew calendar.

As spring ends and summer begins, the daily periods of sunlight lengthen to their longest on the solstice, then begin to shorten again. Our hour clock is based on the average length of the solar day throughout the year. Because the actual length of a solar day varies, the earliest sunrises of the year occur before the summer solstice, the day with the longest period of sunlight, and the latest sunsets of the year occur after the solstice. On the day of the full Moon, Monday, June 17, , morning twilight will begin at AM, sunrise will be at AM, the Sun will reach a maximum altitude of This will be the day with the longest period of sunlight, 14 hours, 53 minutes, and On the day of the solstice, morning twilight will begin at AM, sunrise will be at AM, the Sun will reach a maximum altitude of The latest sunrises of the year will occur on Friday and Saturday, June 28 and 29, at PM.
By the day of the full Moon after next, Tuesday, July 16, , morning twilight will begin at AM, sunrise will be at AM, the Sun will reach a maximum altitude of On the evening of the full Moon on June 17, , as evening twilight ends, the planet Mercury and the planet Mars will appear about a degree apart in the west-northwest at about 5 degrees above the horizon. Mercury will appear brighter than Mars, with Mercury on the right and Mars on the left.
The two bright stars to the upper right of Mercury and Mars will be Pollux and Castor, the "twins" in the constellation Gemini the Twins. The brightest planet in the evening sky will be Jupiter, appearing in the southeast at about 18 degrees above the horizon. Jupiter was at its brightest and closest to the Earth for this apparition a week before, on June 10, The "Summer Triangle" will be rising in the east-northeast.
The "Summer Triangle" is made up of Vega, the brightest star in the constellation Lyra the Harp appearing highest at about 42 degrees above the horizon ; Deneb, the brightest star in the constellation Cygnus the Swan on the left at about 24 degrees above the horizon ; and Altair, the brightest star in the constellation Aquila the Eagle on the right at about 12 degrees above the horizon. About 10 minutes after evening twilight ends, the bright planet Saturn will rise, appearing as bright in the east-southeast as Mercury will appear on the opposite horizon in the west-northwest.
Saturn will be at its closest and brightest for this apparition on July 9, Mercury and Mars will appear at their closest to each other the next evening, June 18, , less than a third of a degree apart, after which they will appear to separate as Mercury shifts to the left and Mars shifts to the right. As the month progresses the planets and stars will generally appear to shift to the west each evening.
By the evening of the full Moon on July 16, , as evening twilight ends, Mercury and Mars will have set already, bright Jupiter will appear in the south-southeast at about 28 degrees above the horizon, and Saturn will appear in the southeast at 16 degrees above the horizon. The Summer Triangle will appear higher in the east with Vega appearing 62 degrees above the horizon.
On the morning of the full Moon on June 17, , as morning twilight begins, the bright planet Jupiter will appear in the southwest at about 8 degrees above the horizon and the planet Saturn will appear in the south-southeast at about 25 degrees above this horizon. The bright star appearing nearly overhead will be Deneb, part of the "Summer Triangle. As the month progresses, Jupiter, Saturn, and the background of stars will appear to shift towards the west. Venus will appear to shift closer to the Sun, rising closer to sunrise and becoming more difficult to see. Venus will pass on the far side of the Sun as seen from the Earth in mid-August By the morning of the full Moon on July 16, , as morning twilight begins, Jupiter will have already set and Saturn will appear low in the southwest at about 7 degrees above the horizon.
This summer should be a great time for Jupiter and Saturn watching, especially with a backyard telescope. Jupiter was at its closest and brightest for the year on June 10, while Saturn will be at its closest and brightest on July 9, called "opposition" because they are opposite the Earth from the Sun, effectively a "full Jupiter" and a "full Saturn". Both will appear to shift towards the west over the coming months, making them visible earlier in the evening sky and friendlier for backyard stargazing, especially if you have young ones with earlier bed times. With clear skies and a small telescope you should be able to see Jupiter's four bright moons, Ganymede, Callisto, Europa, and Io, shifting positions noticeably in the course of an evening.
Galileo was the first person known to point the newly developed telescope at Jupiter, and he immediately noticed these moons that we now call the Galilean moons. For Saturn, you should be able to see the brightly illuminated rings as well as the motions of Saturn's moons, particularly the largest moon, Titan. On Wednesday evening, June 12, , the bright star appearing to the lower right of the waxing gibbous Moon will be Spica.
10 Need-to-Know Things About Jupiter
Even though they are not usually visible, I include in these Moon missives information about Near Earth Objects mostly asteroids that pass the Earth within about 10 or 15 lunar distances, because I find it interesting that we have discovered so many. Sometime around Friday, June 14, , Jun UTC with 5 days, 8 hours, 5 minutes uncertainty , Near Earth Object YA14 , between and feet 48 and meters in size, will pass the Earth at between 8.
On Saturday night into Sunday morning, June 15 to 16, , the bright planet Jupiter, the bright star Antares, and the waxing, gibbous, almost full Moon will appear as a triangle, with Jupiter on the left, the Moon on the right and Antares below. For the Washington, DC area, they will appear in the southeast as evening twilight ends at PM EDT, the Moon will reach its highest in the sky just after midnight at AM, and Antares will be setting in the southwest just as morning twilight begins Sunday morning at AM.
On Sunday evening into Monday morning, June 16 to 17, , the bright planet Jupiter will appear to the right of the nearly full Moon. Earth also developed a magnetic field, which helped protect it from the Sun, allowing our atmosphere to transform into the oxygen- and nitrogen-rich air we breathe today. Airapetian worked with Saxena and Killen on the early Sun study. Had our Sun been a fast rotator, it would have erupted with super flares 10 times stronger than any in recorded history, at least 10 times a day. Even Earth's magnetic field wouldn't have been enough to protect it. The Sun's blasts would have decimated the atmosphere, reducing air pressure so much that Earth wouldn't retain liquid water.

But the Sun rotated at an ideal pace for Earth, which thrived under the early star. Venus and Mars weren't so lucky. Venus was once covered in water oceans and may have been habitable. But due to many factors, including solar activity and the lack of an internally generated magnetic field, Venus lost its hydrogen -- a critical component of water.
How many moons does Venus have?
As a result, its oceans evaporated within its first million years, according to estimates. The planet's atmosphere became thick with carbon dioxide, a heavy molecule that's harder to blow away. These forces led to a runaway greenhouse effect that keeps Venus a sizzling degrees Fahrenheit degrees Celsius , far too hot for life. Mars, farther from the Sun than Earth is, would seem to be safer from stellar outbursts.
Yet, it had less protection than did Earth. Due partly to the Red Planet's weak magnetic field and low gravity, the early Sun gradually was able to blow away its air and water. By about 3. Water still exists on the planet, frozen in the polar caps and in the soil.
- INNER OORT CLOUD REGION -
After influencing the course for life or lack thereof on the inner planets, the aging Sun gradually slowed its pace and continues to do so. Today, it revolves once every 27 days, three times slower than it did in its infancy. The slower spin renders it much less active, though the Sun still has violent outbursts occasionally. To learn about the early Sun, Saxena said, you need to look no further than the Moon, one of the most well-preserved artifacts from the young solar system.
Apollo samples and lunar meteorites are a great starting point for probing the early solar system, but they are only small pieces in a large and mysterious puzzle. The samples are from a small region near the lunar equator, and scientists can't tell with complete certainty where on the Moon the meteorites came from, which makes it hard to place them into geological context. Since the South Pole is home to the permanently shadowed craters where we expect to find the best-preserved material on the Moon, including frozen water, NASA is aiming to send a human expedition to the region by If astronauts can get samples of lunar soil from the Moon's southernmost region, it could offer more physical evidence of the baby Sun's rotation rate, said Airapetian, who suspects that solar particles would have been deflected by the Moon's erstwhile magnetic field 4 billion years ago and deposited at the poles: "So you would expect -- though we've never looked at it -- that the chemistry of that part of the Moon, the one exposed to the young Sun, would be much more altered than the equatorial regions.
So there's a lot of science to be done there. Original written by Lonnie Shekhtman and Miles Hatfield.
