  Jupiter, Mercury and Venus in the morning skyPost Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Search for Posts by Draco Report Post to a Moderator        IP Address Go to the top of this page

This morning Jupiter (lowest on the horizon) then Mercury and Venus were easily visible on the horizon just before dawn. An awe-inspiring sight for this amateur astronomer. Unbelievably clear skies -- it's one of the things I love about living in the Sonoran Desert.

Any other astronomers here?

Have you seen the great conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn last December 21?

When we were still married, for a few summer/fall nights, my wife and I laid out on our front lawn to identify a large number of Constellations.. Some where between 25-35 different ones... We used a Star Wheel...

Since then, not so much...

Wouldn't be so bold as to call myself an astronomer but we love a good dark sky. Also love chasing auroras.
