There will be a range of things to see in the night sky this September.
The summer triangle, comprising stars Deneb, Vega and Altair, continues to impress.
To witness this, use binoculars to focus on Altair and gradually shift your focus upwards, allowing you to see the smaller constellation of Sagitta the Arrow.
A lesser known, southern star named Fomalhaut from Piscis Austrinus constellation also makes an appearance this month on a clear sky; but be prepared with binoculars due to lunar brightness.
September is a prime time to view the planet Saturn.
The ringed planet is based in Aquarius this month.
While not high in the sky, it can be viewed with binoculars or a small telescope.
On the eastern horizon, Jupiter can be located in the constellation Taurus during the end of the month.
Moving towards the Northern horizon, the Plough or Ursa Major, points the way to our Pole Star (Polaris) around half-way towards overhead.
Amateur stargazers also have their eyes set towards the Western horizon, in anticipation of an outburst from the star T Corona Borealis.
The moon's phases in September commence with a new moon on 3rd; first quarter on 11th; full moon on 18th; and last quarter on 24th.
Meanwhile, a small partial lunar eclipse will take place in the morning of September 18 at 3.45am BST.
September 14 is internationally recognised as "Observe the Moon Night".
It's an opportunity to clearly witness a thick crescent moon rising early evening in the western sky.
Guided stargazers can look out for the spectacular feature Mare Crisium or Sea of Crisis, which originated around 4.6 billion years ago.
Probes Luna 15 and Luna 24 have landed within this 556km diameter feature.
