- Uranus is not the easiest planet to observe in the night sky, and most of the time we can’t see it at all, but tonight it will be a little easier to glimpse the distant, icy world.
- NASA says that Uranus will be close to Mars in the night sky, and if you have something like a beautiful binocular or, better yet, a telescope, you should be able to see it.
- The planet, which is pale blue and pale blue, will appear small at such a great distance, but is actually almost 15 times more massive than Earth.
When you look at the night sky, you see a lot of stars, but can you choose planets when you see them? Sometimes it is possible to detect people like Jupiter and Mars without a telescope, but the most common is that people with “medium” eyes can not differentiate much. Tonight, though, you might be able to take a look at Uranus and all you need is a decent binocular.
Huge, blue and smelly uranium. It is also one of the most interesting planets in our system, and it is not uncommon for us to have guides in the sky to see it. This time, Uranus will appear near Mars in the sky, which will make it a little easier to spot, especially if you have the hardware to zoom in a little closer.

Tonight, Uranus will appear between our own Moon and Mars in the sky. It will be tiny and very faint, but it will be there, glowing a pale blue and waiting for someone to come and look for its life.
“The distant outer planet Uranus is too weak for most of us to see with the naked eye and it can be difficult to locate it in the sky without a computer-guided telescope,” NASA explains in its weekly advice post on sky observation. “But Uranus can be located right now between the Moon and Mars.”
Uranus is rare and special for several reasons. It’s very cold, which isn’t particularly unusual, but the planet rotates at a 90-degree angle compared to the rest of the planets in our system. The theory is that something huge crashed against Uranus a long time ago, causing it to move and eventually rotate at an angle that does not match its own orbit around the Sun.
In addition, the planets’ moons have long been of interest to scientists, mainly because they are believed to be covered in ice that can hide liquid water underneath. If that’s the case, these moons could host life somehow, but we wouldn’t know it at all until we were going to check it out.
In any case, Uranus will be in the sky tonight, and if you have binoculars or a telescope, you will be able to see it very well. Assuming time cooperates, of course.
