This mornings run was even more amazing.... millions of small white stars, many of them falling to earth. Then I realised it was snowing.
We come come in peace..... shoot to kill!

If there's a clear sky tomorrow you'll have the thin waning moon very close to Venus in the pre-dawn light.
No. On Uranus.
Tao begets one. One begets two. Two begets all things.

Months later and with the light nights approaching.... I have discovered the Google Sky Map app fro my Htc phone (other providers are available). Thanks for all of the advice
For the last week, during my early evening 4 miles dog walk, I have been watching Jupiter and Saturn getting closer and closer together.
On this evenings walk, Sods Law, for the "Great Conjunction" it was cloudy. Bugger!

Visibility good except in Hill Fog
That's a shame. They were very close together yesterday - certainly in the same field of view when viewed through binoculars.
There was a gent talking about this on the wireless the other day. Apparently Kepler was the first person to map out the travel of the planets and there was a conjunction during his time (17th century). He planned out when future conjunctions would happen - including this one. And this was the best alignment of Jupiter and Saturn since the one that Kepler observed.
