MUSCAT – During opposition, Earth moves directly between the Sun and Saturn, placing the ringed planet at its closest point to Earth.
“At this time, the planet will be closest to Earth this year, shining at its brightest and largest in the night sky. It will rise at sunset and set at sunrise, offering the best chance to view Saturn and its rings, especially from dark areas away from city lights,” stated the announcement from Oman Society of Astronomy and Space, encouraging public to take advantage of this celestial event.
