This month there is plenty to spot in the night skies over the UK, if it’s a clear night.
Uranus
Uranus can be seen for more than 9 hours during the late night/early morning and until sunrise.
The blue planet will be at its highest point in the sky around 3am.
Neptune
Neptune is roughly in the opposite direction of the Sun in the sky, and is, therefore, visible most of the night.
This is the best time of the year to view the planet and will be at its highest point in the sky around 1am.
International Space Station
The ISS will be visible throughout this month on Merseyside if skies stay clear.
Just look for a fast travelling bright object, the times for Merseyside are below.
