Also this evening, Jupiter's moon Io crosses the planet's face from 8:51 to 11:03 p.m. EST, followed by Io itself at 9:34 p.m. with the Great Red Spot transiting at 10:19 p.m. Sunday the moon cozies up to Saturn and actually occults the planet if you're south of Florida. The Full Beaver Moon is next Friday. See your Universe! https://skyandtelescope.org/astronomy-news/observing-news/this-weeks-sky-at-a-glance-november-8-17/
