In October 2026, Saturn will be at its most visible point for observers on Earth, a position known as opposition, which occurs on the 4th. During this time, the planet will be directly opposite the Sun in the sky, making it appear brighter and larger. The series In the Sky, which consists of 22 episodes, explores this celestial event, showcasing Saturn's striking rings and the movement of its largest moon, Titan. The program also highlights a period when the zodiacal light—a faint glow caused by sunlight reflecting off dust in the solar system—will become more visible, beginning in the early part of the month. On the 5th, a thin crescent moon will pass very close to Mars, offering a striking visual pairing for stargazers. Mars will then move across the Cradle cluster, a group of stars in the constellation Scorpius, on the 11th. The zodiacal light will be best seen in the morning sky starting on the 10th, providing an opportunity to observe the subtle glow of solar system dust. On the 28th, the moon will occult, or pass in front of, three stars in the Pleiades, a famous open star cluster also known as the Seven Sisters. This event offers a dramatic view as the stars temporarily disappear behind the moon's silhouette. The series In the Sky also delves into various topics, including discussions on Mexico, the French town of Epinal, and the selection of the best eyepieces for telescopes and other observational instruments. Throughout the program, Cyril Birnbaum and Sébastien Fontaine, the hosts, share their traditional favorites and insights, providing viewers with both scientific knowledge and a personal touch. The series continues to be a valuable resource for amateur astronomers and anyone with an interest in the night sky.
