- Abstract
The article presents a forecast of the astronomical scene in October and November 2005. As autumn will advance towards winter, the Sun's eastwards progress along the ecliptic carries it ever farther south of the celestial equator. Mercury is technically an evening object through most of October and November, reaching greatest elongation 24° east of the Sun on November 3, 2005. With the Square of Pegasus and Andromeda high in the eastern sky, October and November evenings offer good views of neighbouring galaxies to our own in the Local Group.
