Clues for Viewing

Saturn appears bright in the night sky. You'll need a telescope or a good pair of binoculars, though, to get a really good view of its famous rings. Saturn stands out in the night sky because of its brightness and green color. It will look yellow in the northeast after dusk. With a small telescope you can see Saturn's moon Titan and at least three other moons.
