Ceres is the second largest dwarf planet after Pluto and the only dwarf planet in the inner solar system. It comes to opposition, when it is biggest and brightest, on Friday August 28. It won’t be spectacular at magnitude 7.7 you will need good binoculars to see it as a point of light and you will need to watch it move over several days to see it move to be sure you have seen it. But it will be cool to say you have seen a water world in the skies.
