The "Winter" constellations of Taurus and Orion can already be seen in the
pre-dawn sky. Appearing near them are the two largest planets of our solar
systemJupiter and Saturn. The Moon will appear to pass by these planets and
constellations next week, forming a beautiful trio with Jupiter and Saturn on August 4th,
then crossing though the Hyades cluster near the bright star Aldebaran on the 6th.
