Method
Positions are computed with Skyfield and the JPL DE421 ephemeris; magnitudes use Skyfield’s planetary magnitude models; constellations use the IAU boundaries. Rise and set are for a level horizon with mean refraction. ‘Evening’ means the planet is more than 5° above the horizon at the end of civil twilight after sunset, ‘morning’ the same before sunrise; ‘during the night’ means above 5° only in between. Moon–planet approaches are geocentric minima under 5°. Times are local; event times are JST and UTC.
