Finder Chart 4 Vesta

 Sky and Telescope has a nice finder chart if you want to try finding that cute little rascal of an asteroid all by yourself.

Just click on the sentence above to be re-directed.

4 Vesta

The bright asteroid 4 Vesta is making moves through Cetus and can be seen in the image here.

Look just below the V_ in Vesta for the tiny speck of light marking its elusive spot in the sky.

There’s a nice finder chart for locating the asteroid here:

You can find 4 Vesta in the evenings just after ten PM in the eastern sky.
