About the Event
In positional astronomy, two astronomical objects are said to be in opposition when they are on opposite sides of the celestial sphere, as observed from a given body (usually Earth). A planet (or asteroid or comet) is said to be "in opposition" when it is in opposition to the Sun. Saturn Reaches opposition on 20 July when it can be seen just east of Jupiter. Uranus Morning planet, almost reaches 30° altitude due east pre-dawn at the end of the month.
