Best Night Sky Events of July 2020
Here is the latest report from Starry Night Software and Chris Vaughan, at Space.com. It provides information on several interesting observing opportunities throughout the month of July, including the full Moon, Jupiter, and Saturn forming a triangle on Sunday, July 5th. It also includes lots of interesting pictures, maps, charts, and information for this month.

I hope this helps with your observing plans and that it is useful to you. Thanks for looking, and the best of wishes for many clear night skies.
