The Sky Under A Clear Dry Night Sky In The Morning
After 2 o'clock in the moring one can see a lot of stars in a city in a clear summer sky. The air is dry and warm. Because osf the very dry air coming fram Africa one can see much more stard as usual. With your binoculars you can see Nebulars and star clusters in the sky that one cannot see on normal summer nights.
