Look for Jishui in the constellation Gem. At apparent magnitude 4.89, it can be glimpsed with the unaided eye under dark skies.
Like any astronomical target, Jishui is best seen from a dark site away from city lights, and when it is above the horizon depends on your latitude and the time of year. The visibility panel above works out tonight's viewing window for your saved location.
Jishui scores 31 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the uncommon tier. Another 3 points would lift it into a rarer tier.
That score comes from 6 science badges — Star, Naked-eye visible, Has a proper name, On the zodiac, Yellow-white F-type star and Giant star — each earned for a real, measurable property of the object. Rarity on Spacedle is never random: the more remarkable an object's astrophysics, the more badges it collects, the higher it scores, and the rarer it ranks.
