The 2024 spring equinox is almost here. The night of Tuesday, March 19 marks astronomical spring in the Northern Hemisphere and astronomical autumn in the Southern Hemisphere.

That means that, north of the equator, the spring equinox is the best opportunity to stargaze for some time. After that, nights in the Northern Hemisphere will shorten until the summer solstice on Thursday, June 20, when they'll get too short for all but late-night astronomy. The farther north you are, the shorter night will be. Nights won't be as long as they are on March 19 until the autumn equinox on Sept. 22.
