The Heavens in October UA Planets and Algol Observations
The October sky highlights Mercury as the only near sun object, while other planets appear as morning stars. Uranus is faint at magnitude six to seven, and Herschel’s discovery of Uranus as a planet is noted. Algol’s regular occultations in October are listed with precise times, and the Pleiades and Capella are discussed with notes on myth, distance, and brightness. The piece concludes by addressing potential links between celestial events and earthly weather, dismissing a proven connection.
