Great view of Saturn tonight. Slooh will live stream

Saturn lovers, listen up! This weekend is your best chance to view the most gorgeous planet in our solar system for all of 2014, and you don't want to miss it.

On Saturday Saturn will be in opposition, which means it will be directly opposite the sun from the perspective of Earth. The ringed planet will rise into view just as the sun sets and will dip beneath the horizon just as the sun rises.

At the same time, Saturn will be closer to the Earth than any other time in 2014, so it will look bigger and brighter, and its rings will be visible in heightened detail compared to the rest of the year.

Saturn will be shining brightly in the night sky near the constellation Libra, but you will need a telescope to make out the planet's iconic rings.
