It is KI-0AR and in control for the Colorado astronomy and continuing. We've got Ceres, Ceres for the dwarf planets, we've got Ceres will be at opposition on the second rising as the sun sets. Ceres rises at 746 PM on the first and it's also 524 PM on the second. Ceres can be spotted low to the south at near midnight when it is highest in the sky. Ceres is at its best viewing for the year this month. Ceres is in the competition. The scene is shining at 97.7. It's fairly low so you're definitely going to have to wait until Ceres gets higher up in the sky to spot it. Maybe it's shining the same magnitude as Neptune so you can find Neptune. Neptune might be able to find Ceres there as well but you've definitely got to use the dark skies for that. We've got Pluto will be stationary on the 14th meaning that it neither moves forward nor backwards relative to the background sky. Pluto sets at 114 AM on the first at about 1109 PM on the 10th. This time the spot Pluto will be in the late evening when it is highest in the sky to the southwest. Pluto is in the constellation Capricorn. It's shining at magnitude 15.3. As always, good luck at spotting Neptune. Ceres and Pluto, large telescope and dark skies will be needed.
