From Cambridge , Antares Cluster is difficult to observe as it will appear no higher than 15° above the horizon. It will become visible around 19:32 (EDT) as the dusk sky fades, 15° above your south-western horizon. It will then sink towards the horizon, setting 2 hours and 54 minutes after the Sun at 21:45.
