The vernal equinox, marking the start of spring, is approaching, bringing equal durations of day and night. According to the Daily Record News, this astronomical event is a significant transition when the sun crosses the celestial equator. In Ellensburg, Washington, Venus can be observed in the western sky at 8 PM, while Deneb, a circumpolar star, remains visible above the horizon. Uranus, with its unique rolling orbit and 28 moons, is also visible in the night sky, positioned near the Pleiades star cluster. The equinox is a time of balance and change, celebrated by astronomers and sky watchers.
