While I've been driving at night, I've been observing the position of Venus whenever I'm driving westward it is to my left, just above the trees. I've also identified Cassiopeia and the summer triangle's bright stars: Altair, Vega, and Deneb. I can't really see the rest of the constellations that make up the summer triangle from my house, but last night I identified Cygnus. All of my observations have been naked eye in my driveway with the help of StarWalk on my phone to confirm my observations. I also noticed last night at around 8:30 that we're approaching the first quarter phase of the moon.
This week I observed approximately 3 hours collectively, collecting the time from both this weeks and past weeks of the quarter, observing the same things without precise logging.
