  5. The Night Sky Friday, June 10 · Look to the upper right of the Moon this evening for Saturn and little Porrima. Upper left of the Moon is Spica. Brighter Arcturus shines very high above them all (out of the frame here). Saturday, June 11· Around 10 or 11 p.m. (depending on where you live), the dim Little Dipper floats straight upward from Polaris at the end of its handle, like a lost helium balloon trailing its string. · With summer almost here, the big Summer Triangle is beginning to dominate the eastern sky. Its topmost and brightest star is Vega, plain to see. Look lower left of Vega, by two or three fist-widths at arm's length, for Deneb, the brightest star in that area. Farther to Vega's lower right is Altair. Sunday, June 12· While the Little Dipper floats straight up, the Big Dipper hangs straight down. Look for the Big Dipper high in the northwest after dark this week. Its Pointer stars (currently the bottom two) point rightward toward Polaris, the bottom star of the Little Dipper's handle. Monday, June 13· The thick gibbous Moon shines near the head of Scorpius this evening. Look for Antares farther to the Moon's lower left, as shown here.
