Learn how to see several double stars, a couple of globular clusters AND a number of craters on the Moon's surface! All are easily found and observed, even with small telescopes and binoculars. Check out Antares, the double Beta Scorpii and Nu Scorpii, along with the craters Hevelius, Cavalerius, Petavius and Langrenus on either side of the Full Moon on August 1st.
