‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch Admires Planet Saturn Dusk to Dawn

Summary: ‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch admires Planet Saturn dusk to dawn even as dark hours admit a constellation, a galaxy, a star cluster, two planets more.

"God talks to human beings through many vectors: through each other, through organized religion, through the great books of those religions, through wise people, through art and music and literature and poetry, but nowhere with such detail and grace and color and joy as through creation. When we destroy a species, when we destroy a special place, we're diminishing our capacity to sense the divine, understand who God is and what our own potential is." Robert Francis Kennedy Jr., April 19, 2023, Boston Park Plaza Hotel, Back Bay, Boston, Massachusetts.

“And there’s many people out there who want us to move to the next planet already and I’m like, hang on, let’s not give up on this planet yet," William, Prince of Wales, July 31, 2023, Sorted Food food truck, London, England, United Kingdom.

Planet Saturn, first acknowledged Friday, July 30, 1610 telescopically by Galileo Galilei (Feb. 15, 1564-Jan. 8, 1642) of Pisa, Duchy of Florence [of subsequent northern Italy], adorns, Hawaiianized as Makalii (Pleiades [Greek πλέω, “to sail”?], from Hawaiian maka li’i, “beloved diminutive”?), the evening and the night, the post-midnight and the pre-dawn skies of ‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch (Hawaiianized as Kepakemapa); observations of Saturn as a planet depicted with two moons in 1610 and as a planet with two "arms" in 1616 by the Florentine astronomer: Public Domain, via Wikimedia Commons

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch admires Planet Saturn dusk to dawn even as dark hours admit a constellation, a galaxy, a star cluster, two planets more, albeit all absent from early-morning appearances.

Browsing darkened skies begin 8:00 p.m. Hawaii-Aleutian (4:00 Chamorro, 7:00 Samoa, 10:00 Alaska, 11:00 Pacific, midnight Mountain, 1:00 next-day Central, 2:00 Eastern, 3:00 Atlantic) Time onward. Such starry skies contain Backbone, Fishhook, Kawelo Kite navigational star families and star lines; new, first-quarter, full, last-quarter moon phases; Milky Way galaxy; and Planet Saturn. Akau, Hoolua, Komohana horizons (from Hawaiian ‘ākau, “right [of west-ensconced sun]”; ho’olua, “[rain-bearing strong] north wind”; komo, “west [where sun] enters [sea]”) domicile Backbone star line.

Backbone star line, as Kaiwikuamoo, entertains Hokupaa, Nahiku and Hokulea (from Hawaiian Kaiwikuamo’o, “the lizard’s backbone”; Hōkūpa’a, “star immovable”; Nāhiku, “the seven”; Hōkūle’a, “star clear/happy”) stars.

Koolau northeast horizon diagonally to sky center to Kona southwest horizon features Fishhook star line, Manaiakalani (from Hawaiian māna ia ka lani, “hook fish the chief[‘s]”).

Manaiakalani guards there its Pira’etea (“white sea-swallow”), Keoe (“sweet potato [‘ulua, Ipomoea batatas]”), Humu (“fishhook hole”), Pīmoe (“trevally [ulua, Caranx spp]”), Kamakaunuiamāui, “Maui’s big fishhook”) stars. Ia (Milky Way, from Hawaiian i’a, “fish”) galaxy houses there with the aforementioned Fishhook stars, hailed among Unitedstatesian mainlanders as Deneb, Vega, Altair, Sagittarius and Scorpius. Kawelo Kite, as Kalupeakawelo (“the kite of Kawelo [personal name for “family trait”]”), inhabits Akau through Koolau northeast horizons, to Hikina east and Malanai southeast horizons.

Planet Saturn journeys in the Hikina east horizon dusk to dawn, when and where ‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch jubilates Kawelo Kite as Kalupeakawelo star line.

Akau, Koolau, Hikina and Malanai horizons know as September (Hawaiianized Kepakemapa) navigational star family the Kalupeakawelo star line, commonly Kawelo’s Kite and the kite of Kawelo.

Saturn (Hawaiianized Makulu) lodges between Hikina and Malanai horizons, between Kalupeakawelo stars Keawe (“the bearer”) northward, Kukaniloko (“to anchor sound within”) and Nalani (“the heavens”) southward. It manifests southeast of Kalupeakawelo star-line stars Piilani (“climb heavenward”), Manokalanipo (“shark of the heavenly night”), themselves west of Kakuhihewa (“chart mistakenly”) and Kamoi (“the king”). Early morning nudges into the pre-dawn to dawn skies one constellation, one star cluster and two planets more as neighbors that nestle near “night-owl” Planet Saturn.

Hours dusk to dawn occasion Planet Saturn as optimal extra-navigational star-family, extra-star-line occurrence observed over new, first-quarter, full, last-quarter moons of ‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch.

Pre-dawn skies present Jupiter (Hawaiianized Kaʻāwela, from Hawaiian ka āwela, “the young Christmas wrasse [Thalassoma fuscum]”) and Mars (Hawaiianized Hōkūʻula, from Hawaiian hōkū ula, “star red”).

Early-morning western skies queue Planet Saturn, then Planet Jupiter center-west with the star cluster Makalii (Pleiades [Greek πλέω, “to sail”?], from Hawaiian maka li’i, “beloved diminutive”?). The constellation Orion (from Akkadian Uru-anna, “heaven’s light” via Greek Ὠρῑ́ων via Latin Ōrīōn), Hawaiianized as Kaheiheianākeiki (“the cat’s cradle of the children”), resides center-west too. Planet Mars shows last and red from early-morning skies east of Planet Saturn, settled in southeastern skies evening and night, western skies pre-dawn to shining sunrise.

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch treats Planet Saturn trekking darkened skies dusk to dawn with the Milky Way, lightening pre-dawn with Jupiter, Mars, Orion and Pleiades.

Planet Saturn westward, Planet Jupiter (Hawaiianized as Kaawela, from Hawaiian ka āwela, “the young Christmas wrasse [Thalassoma fuscum]”) center-ward with Pleiades (Hawaiianized as Makalii [Pleiades (Greek πλέω, “to sail”?), from Hawaiian maka li’i, “beloved diminutive”?]) star cluster and Planet Mars (Hawaiianized as Hōkūʻula, from Hawaiian hōkū ula, “star red”) east of Makulu (Saturn Hawaiianized) aestheticize early-morning, pre-dawn skies September 2024 (Hawaiianized Kepakemapa) over ‘Imiloa Astronomy Center, University of Hawaii, Hilo, Hawaii County and island, Hawaii state (from Hawaiian ‘imi loa, “to search far”; ha wai ‘i, “breath life-force supreme”; hilo, “thread”).

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch Admitted the Autumnal Equinox Sunday

Summary: ‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch admitted the Autumnal Equinox Sunday, Sep. 22, even as Saturday, Sep. 28, most accurately approximates the Fall Equinox.

"God talks to human beings through many vectors: through each other, through organized religion, through the great books of those religions, through wise people, through art and music and literature and poetry, but nowhere with such detail and grace and color and joy as through creation. When we destroy a species, when we destroy a special place, we're diminishing our capacity to sense the divine, understand who God is and what our own potential is." Robert Francis Kennedy Jr., April 19, 2023, Boston Park Plaza Hotel, Back Bay, Boston, Massachusetts.

“And there’s many people out there who want us to move to the next planet already and I’m like, hang on, let’s not give up on this planet yet," William, Prince of Wales, July 31, 2023, Sorted Food food truck, London, England, United Kingdom.

Constellations, Hawaiian star lines, a penumbral lunar eclipse, the fall equinox and moon phases characterize the Imiloa Astronomy Center's Sky Watch graphics for September 2024. The star chart depicts September's Hawaiian night sky at 8:00 p.m. and orients an observer to face south for scanning the night sky. This orientation places the Hikina (east) and the Komohana (west) horizons on the observer's left and right, respectively.

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch admitted the Autumnal Equinox Sunday, Sep. 22, 2024, even as Saturday, Sep. 28, 2024, most accurately approximates the equal day, the equal night in the Fall Equinox.

The Northern Hemisphere’s Autumnal Equinox of the United States’ mainland states and mid-ocean state that brings together the Hawaiian islands becomes the Southern Hemisphere’s Spring Equinox. Its Spring Equinox of United States’ mainland states and 50th, mid-ocean state Tuesday, Mar 19, 2024, counterparts the Southern Hemisphere’s Autumnal Equinox, also called Fall Equinox. ‘Imiloa Sky Watch (from Hawaiian ‘imi loa, “to search far”) designates the March equinox and the September equinox as respectively developing in Malaki and in Kepakemapa.

The University of Hawaii-Hilo astronomy center, Hawaii County and island, Hawaii state (from Hawaiian ha wai ‘i, “breath life-force supreme”; hilo, “thread”) employs one Hawaiian equivalent.

Each main island in the Hawaiian archipelago’s (from Greek ἀρχι-, “main”; πέλαγος, “sea”) eight-main, many-Northwest islands features in the ancient, Polynesian-ancestored, traditional culture island-specific month names.

Kapiolani Community College, Honolulu, Honolulu County, Oahu island (from Hawaiian kapi’o, “arched”; lani, “heaven”; hono, “bay”; lulu, “sheltered”; o’ahu, “gathering-place”) gives four names from two-season Hawaii. Cool, wet hooilo rainy, wintry and dry, hot kau (from Hawaiian ho’oilo, “to cause to germinate/sprout”; kau, “roost”) summer, warm seasons respectively have March and September. The month March of Northern Hemisphere’s Spring Equinox is Nana or Welo (from Hawaiian nana, “to gaze, examine, view”; welo, “to float, flutter, stream [windwardly], [sun-]set”).

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch jubilated the Autumnal Equinox the fourth Sunday in Hilinama or in Ikuwa (from Hawaiian hilinama, “confident[-plant-growth] fading”?; ʻikuwā, “cloudburst-, surf-, thunder-roaring”?).

Polynesian-ancestored, traditional Hawaiian calendars keep each lunar month within three sets of 10-day periods known as ekolu anahulu (from Hawaiian ‘ekolu anahulu, “three 10 days[’ period]”).

The ancient, traditional Hawaiian calendars of the Pacific Ocean-linked Polynesian voyagers and of Polynesian-ancestored Hawaiians lodge first-quarter, full and last-quarter phases in their three-phase lunar-month calendars. Anahulu hoonui (“10 days to enlarge”), anahulu poepoe (“10 days to round”), anahulu emi (“10 days to diminish”) manifest themselves in each such Hawaiian-calendar lunar month. ‘Imiloa Astronomy Center nestles four lunar phrases into each month such that Sep. 2-9, 10-16, 17-23 and 24-30 respectively niche new, first-quarter, full and last-quarter moons.

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch observed officially Sunday, Sep. 22 the Autumnal Equinox (from Latin aequus, “equal”; nox, “night” via aequinoctium) occurring unofficially Saturday, Sep. 28.

Full-moon mahina piha/poepoe, after new-moon mahina hou and first-quarter mahina hapalua mua and before last-quarter mahina hapalua hope, officially possesses the Autumnal Equinox Sunday the 22nd.

The Autumnal Equinox quantifies one 12-hour day and one 12-hour night in one 24-hour period even as September quarters no date that qualifies for that definition. Saturday, Sep. 28, 2024, reveals itself as the closest realization of that 12-hour day, 12-hour night reunion rendered by the due-east rising, the due-west setting sun. That date during the last-quarter moon, not the full moon, nevertheless supplies a day, at 11 hours and 59 minutes, short one minute of 12 hours.

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch tendered Autumnal Equinox Sunday (Hawaiianized Ka māuiili o ka hāʻulelau) the 22nd officially even as it tenders it unofficially the 28th.

On Saturday, Sep. 15, 2024, Haleakalā National Park hosted a special event of moon-sketching with charcoal and other materials in the park at dark.

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch Airs Backbone, Fishhook, Kawelo Kite Star Lines

Summary: ‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch airs Backbone, Fishline, Kawelo Kite star lines alightened eveningly, nightly by a galaxy, a planet and four moon phases.

"God talks to human beings through many vectors: through each other, through organized religion, through the great books of those religions, through wise people, through art and music and literature and poetry, but nowhere with such detail and grace and color and joy as through creation. When we destroy a species, when we destroy a special place, we're diminishing our capacity to sense the divine, understand who God is and what our own potential is." Robert Francis Kennedy Jr., April 19, 2023, Boston Park Plaza Hotel, Back Bay, Boston, Massachusetts.

“And there’s many people out there who want us to move to the next planet already and I’m like, hang on, let’s not give up on this planet yet," William, Prince of Wales, July 31, 2023, Sorted Food food truck, London, England, United Kingdom.

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch airs Backbone, Fishline, Kawelo Kite star lines alightened eveningly, nightly by a galaxy, a planet, four moon phases, predawnly by a constellation, a star cluster, three planets.

Kalupeakawelo (Kawelo’s kite, the Kawelo kite, from Hawaiian ka lupe a kawelo, “the kite of Kawelo [from ka welo, “the family trait”]”) bides northeasterly to southeasterly. The Kawelo kite contains, as the kite of Kawelo, the Great Square of Pegasus (from Greek πηγή, “fountain, spring-fed fountain, spring” via Πήγασος via Latin Pēgasus). That square domiciles Alpheratz and Scheat, Algenib and Markab (from Arabic surratu l-faras, “the horse’s navel”; as-sāʕid, “the forearm”; al-jānib, “the side”; murakkab, “place of riding”).

Manokalanipo and Kakuhihewa (from Hawaiian manō ka lani pō, “shark the heavenly night[‘s]”; kākuhi hewa, “chart mistakenly”), as Alpheratz and Scheat, embellish square-top left and right.

Kite-bottom left and right Piilani and Keawe (from Hawaiian pi’ilani, “to climb heaven[ward]”; ke awe, “the bearer”) figure square-bottom left and right as Algenib and Markab.

Koolau and Akau horizons guard Cassiopeia north-northeastward as Iwakelii (from Hawaiian ko’olau, “windward”; ‘ākau, “right [of west-ensconced sun]”; ‘iwa ali’i, “frigatebird [Fregata minor] chief”; Greek Κασσιόπη). Those same north-northeast horizons house the constellation Cepheus as Kamoi (from Greek Κηφεύς, “gardener”; Hawaiian ka mōʻī, “the king”), west of Iwakelii and north of Kakuhihewa. Saturn inhabits early-morning, east-evening, east-night skies north of Kukaniloko (Formalhaut [from Arabic famu l-ḥūt, “the fish mouth”], from Hawaiian kū kani loko, “to anchor sound within”).

Backbone, whose Nalani journeys Hema-ward (from Hawaiian nā lani, “the heavens”; hema, “[west-ensconced sun] left[-ward]”), Fishhook, Kawelo Kite star lines join ‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch.

Manaiakalani keeps centerward Akau to Kona ([demigod] Maui’s fishhook, from Hawaiian māui, “bruise, sprain”; mana ia ka lani, “hook fish the chief[‘s]”; kona, “keeward, southwest”) horizons.

Maui’s Fishhook lodges stars top-left Deneb, top-right Vega, bottom-center Altair (from Arabic ḏanab ad-dajāja, “hen’s tail”; al-nasr al-wāqi, “the descending eagle”; an-nasr aṭ-ṭāʔir, “the flying eagle”). Hikina- and Komohana-centered Piraetea, Keoe, Humu (from Hawaiian komo, “west [where sun] enters [sea]”; Pira’etea, “white sea-swallow”; keoe, “sweet potato”; humu, “fish-hook hole”) maintain Summer-Triangle stars. The southerly Chief’s Fishhook nestles Hema- and Kona-niched Sagittarius and Scorpius (from Latin sagittal -ārius, “arrow concerning, having”; Greek σκορπῐ́ος, “scorpion”) respectively as Pimoe and Kamakaunulmaui.

Backbone, with outstanding Kamakaunuiamaui (from Hawaiian ka makau nui a māui, “the fishhook big Maui[‘s]”), Fishhook, Kawelo Kite star lines obliges ‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch.

Evening-centered, night-centered skies present the fish Pimoe (from Hawaiian pīmoe, “trevally [ulua locally, Caranx spp scientifically]”) even as Hoolua, Komohana, Kona horizons possess the Kaiwikuamoo line.

The Kaiwikuamoo (from Hawaiian ka iwi kua moo, “the bone back lizard[s]”) star line queues the North Star, as Hokupaa (from Hawaiian hōkū pa’a, “star immovable”). It represents the Big Dipper, as Nahiku south of Hokupaa, north of Hokulea, on Hoolua horizon (from nā hiku, “the seven”; ho’olua, “[rain-bearing strong] north wind”). Backbone, with Hokulea (from Hawaiian hōkū le’a, “star clear/happy”; Greek ᾰ̓́ρκτος οὖρος, “bear guard” via Ᾰ̓ρκτοῦρος) and Fishhook star lines, unlike Kawelo Kite, seek Komohana horizon).

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch tracks Backbone’s Hōkūle’a, Hōkūpa’a, Nāhiku; Fishhook’s Humu, Kamakaunuiamāui, Keoe, Pīmoe, Pira’etea; Kawelo Kite’s ‘Iwakeli’i, Kākuhihewa, Kamō’ī, Keawe, Kūkaniloko, Manokalanipō, Nālani, Pi’ilani.

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch Appears Most Active Under Full Moons

Summary: ‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch appears most active under full moons as moon-phase hosts to the Autumnal Equinox and to a penumbral lunar eclipse.

"God talks to human beings through many vectors: through each other, through organized religion, through the great books of those religions, through wise people, through art and music and literature and poetry, but nowhere with such detail and grace and color and joy as through creation. When we destroy a species, when we destroy a special place, we're diminishing our capacity to sense the divine, understand who God is and what our own potential is." Robert Francis Kennedy Jr., April 19, 2023, Boston Park Plaza Hotel, Back Bay, Boston, Massachusetts.

“And there’s many people out there who want us to move to the next planet already and I’m like, hang on, let’s not give up on this planet yet," William, Prince of Wales, July 31, 2023, Sorted Food food truck, London, England, United Kingdom.

'Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch (from Hawaiian 'imi loa, "to search far") acclaims its most active accomplishments under full moons from Tuesday, Sep. 17, 2024, to Monday, Sep. 23, 2024. It acknowledges a penumbral (from Latin paene umbra, “almost shadow” via penumbra, “part-shaded area around a shadow’s edges”) lunar eclipse Monday the 17th. It addresses the Autumnal Equinox, also affirmed as the Fall Equinox, of same-length day and same-length night Sunday the 22nd; graphic of "The orientation of the earth as viewed from the center of the moon during greatest eclipse," September 2024: SockPuppetForTomruen at English Wikipedia, Public Domain, via Wikimedia Commons

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch appears most active, of four lunar phases, under full moons as moon-phase hosts to the Autumnal Equinox, also acknowledged as Fall Equinox, and a penumbral lunar eclipse.

Mahina hou (from Hawaiian mahina hou, “moon fresh, new, recent”) begins the new-moon lunar phase Monday, Sep. the 2nd and bears it through Tuesday the 10th. It comes, as carryover that considers one month concluding and another month commencing, after the last day, Sunday the 1st, of the August last-quarter, waning-moon phase. It domiciles no cloud-free sunniness even as cloudy-sunny, cloudy-rainy-sunny skies respectively describe Monday the 9th, Tuesday the 10th; and Tuesday the 3rd through Monday the 9th.

Perhaps that overcast and that precipitation extends into the evening and the night hours between each dusky sunset and each early-morning sunrise and exacerbates moonlight-extinguished skies.

University of Hawaii’s 200-acre (80.9371-hectare) Science and Technology Park features ‘Imiloa Astronomy Center (from Hawaiian ‘imi loa, “to search far”; ha wai ‘i, “breath life-force supreme”).

Hilo (from Hawaii hilo, “thread”), Hawaii County seat in South Hilo district, Hawaii island, Hawaii state, guards the 9-acre (3.64217 hectares) astronomy and culture education center. Sky Watch happens there 8:00 p.m. Hawaii-Aleutian (4:00 Chamorro, 7:00 Samoa, 10:00 Alaska, 11:00 Pacific, midnight Mountain, 1:00 next-day Central, 2:00 Eastern, 3:00 Atlantic) Time onward. Mahina hapalua mua (first-quarter phase, from Hawaiian mahina hapa[-]lua mua, “moon half[-]double first”) invokes its six waxing-moon days there, from Wednesday the 11th through Monday the 16th.

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch jubilates one eclipse, one equinox, one galaxy, one star cluster, three planets, three starlines in journeys most active under full moons.

Wednesday the 11th, Sunday the 15th and Monday the 16th keep mixed cloudy-sunny skies even as Thursday the 12th through Saturday the 14th know cloudy-rainy-sunny get-togethers.

Perhaps that overcast and that precipitation lasts into the evening and the night hours from each twilighted sunset to each twilit sunrise and lords moonlight-lessened skies. Mahina o hoku, mahina piha, mahina poepoe (from Hawaiian mahina o hōkū, “moon star[‘]”; mahina piha, “moon full”; mahina poepoe, “moon round”) matters as full-moon phase. Monday the 17th, Saturday the 21st; Tuesday the 18th, Wednesday the 19th, Monday the 23rd; Friday the 20th, Sunday the 22nd niche cloudy-sunny, cloudy-rainy-sunny, sunny skies.

‘Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch offers its observers its most active occurrences under the full moons that optimize one eclipse, one equinox and two sunny days.

The full-moon lunar phase presents a penumbral (from Latin paene umbra, “almost shadow” via penumbra, “part-shaded area around a shadow’s edges”) lunar eclipse Monday the 17th.

The full-moon lunar phase queues the Autumnal Equinox (from Latin aequus nox, “equal night” via aequinoctium, “equinox”), also qualified as the Fall Equinox, Sunday the 22nd. Mahina hapalua hope (last-, waning-moon phase, from Hawaiian mahina hapa[-]lua hope, "moon half[-]double last") represents the last-quarter moon phase, from Sep. 24 through Sep. 30. Tuesday the 24th, Saturday the 28th; Wednesday the 25th, Monday the 30th; Thursday the 26th, Friday the 27th, Sunday the 29th sequence sunny, cloudy-sunny, cloudy-rainy-sunny skies.

'Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch tallies its most active times under full moons even as all phases treat a constellation, a galaxy, moons, planets and stars.

'Imiloa September 2024 Sky Watch, at 'Imiloa Astronomy Center, University of Hawaii Science and Technology Park, Hilo, Hawaii County and island, Hawaii state (from Hawaiian 'imi loa, "to search far"; ha wai 'i, "breath life-force supreme"; hilo, "thread"), apprises us of the same-length day, same-length night of the Autumnal Equinox, also appreciated as the Fall Equinox (from Latin aequus nox, “equal night” via aequinoctium, “equinox”), Sunday the 22nd; graphic of "Illumination of Earth by the Sun on the day of the equinox (vernal and autumnal).
