INTRODUCTION
Please bear in mind that much of this material has been specifically tailored for local (Southampton, UK) observers although some items will be valid for all observers worldwide. If you require timetables for other areas I am happy to generate them for you, please supply me with your location and timezone and use the e-mail link at the bottom of this page.
Although this page was generated by me, I am grateful for the input by Pete Cutler who supplied material for inclusion on this page.
MERCURY
The best times to observe the planet are as follows...
Some further useful observational data is listed below.
The table below lists the rise and set times for the Sun and Mercury at 5 day intervals. Please bear in mind that these times have been calculated for the local area (Southampton, UK) and time zone (Greenwich Mean Time). No correction has been made for other time zones.
VENUS
Some further useful observational data is listed below.
The table below lists the setting times for the Sun and Venus at 10 day intervals. Please bear in mind that these times have been calculated for the local area (Southampton, UK) and time zone (Greenwich Mean Time). No correction has been made for other time zones.
MARS
Some further useful observational data is listed below.
The table below lists the rise, transit and set times for Mars at 10 day intervals. Also listed is the magnitude of the planet. Please bear in mind that these times have been calculated for the local area (Southampton, UK) and time zone (Greenwich Mean Time). No correction has been made for other time zones.
JUPITER
Some further useful observational data is listed below.
The table below lists the rise, transit, and set times for Jupiter at 10 day intervals. Please bear in mind that these times have been calculated for the local area (Southampton, UK) and time zone (Greenwich Mean Time). No correction has been made for other time zones. Also included is Jupiter's magnitude...
SATURN
Some further useful observational data is listed below.
The table below lists the local rise, transit, and set times for Saturn at 10 day intervals. Please bear in mind that these times have been calculated for the local area (Southampton, UK) and time zone (Greenwich Mean Time). No correction has been made for other time zones. The visual magnitude figures are those calculated for the planet and do not take into account additional brightness resulting from the rings.
URANUS
Some further useful observational data is listed below.
The table below lists the rise, transit and set times for Uranus at 10 day intervals. Please bear in mind that these times have been calculated for the local area (Southampton, UK) and time zone (Greenwich Mean Time). No correction has been made for other time zones.
NEPTUNE
Some further useful observational data is listed below.
The table below lists the rise, transit and set times for Neptune at 10 day intervals. Please bear in mind that these times have been calculated for the local area (Southampton, UK) and time zone (Greenwich Mean Time). No correction has been made for other time zones.
PLUTO
Some further useful observational data is listed below.
The table below lists the rise, transit and set times for Pluto at 10 day intervals. Please bear in mind that these times have been calculated for the local area (Southampton, UK) and time zone (Greenwich Mean Time). No correction has been made for other time zones.

This page has been provided to publicise some news and information about astronomy related items, namely the Planets. The items listed here are by no means exhaustive since astronomy is well represented by many other websites, it is not my intention to overly duplicate that material. Above is a list of 'jump to' links which will take you to a summary of information generated by me.
