Summer Solstice Brings Stargazing Delights | JQJO

The summer triangle, composed of Vega, Altair, and Deneb, graces the night sky. June's solstice brings longer days and warmer stargazing. The Bootids meteor shower peaks June 27, offering a slow-moving celestial display. Scorpio and Leo constellations are also visible, with Mars making close approaches to the moon. Astronomy events, including the Amateur Astronomers Association's Spring Starfest and a new planetarium show at the American Museum of Natural History (narrated by Pedro Pascal), offer opportunities for celestial viewing.
