Opposition of Saturn

On Sunday 8th September we’ll be running a public stargazing event to enjoy the skies above Bath.

On this evening the Earth will travel between Saturn and the Sun. The planet is said to be in Opposition. This is the closest Saturn and the Earth will be this year and so the planet will be the largest and brightest.
