Today is a good day to place a hold on a telescope

by amy

Why? Because over the next two weeks Jupiter and Venus - both prominent in the western sky at dusk - will be moving closer and closer together until their conjunction, Tuesday, June 30, when they’ll be only .3 degrees apart and visible together in your field of view. This is the celestial highlight of early summer, folks, so place a hold today!

Great!

Excellent, thanks for alerting us! I will check out a telescope, definitely!

That is actually really cool. I remember when I was in 5th grade and i saw Venus passing through the sun. I thought that was really cool, and this reminds me of that experience.

It has been really fantastic to see this, and it is visible to the naked eye....that is, when it's not cloudy! Arg!
