Didn't know we were looking at Venus and Jupiter. It was amazing. <BR/>Great capture !!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing.Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07834331771109216377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3270057750548007853.post-65968448489501509712008-12-02T13:33:00.000-06:002008-12-02T13:33:00.000-06:00Thanks Darbee!

As far as how close the two planets will get (from our perspective) I think they've gotten as close as they are going to get, in fact, I think they were at their closest on the 30th. They'll be close again in March of 2012, sans the Lunar conjunction.

I haven't looked up any information on the conjunction, so I appreciate all the info! Saved me a Google trip!

Bob at Blackholes and Astrostuff says the Venus/Jupiter conjunction will be visible for quite some time, you just won't get to see the moon with them. I didn't know that about Da Vinci either, I learn all kinds of stuff researching for my blog entries. Kind of like you and your fungus!Geniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02035732790904857758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3270057750548007853.post-3338235973494841422008-12-02T09:57:00.000-06:002008-12-02T09:57:00.000-06:00Fascinating!

I love learning about the cosmos and I did not know that about Da Vinci. We have had nothing but fog and clouds but maybe it'll clear up in time for me to catch a similar view before its gone.~angel~https://www.blogger.com/profile/00664077917143041877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3270057750548007853.post-70415759543491548952008-12-01T22:16:00.000-06:002008-12-01T22:16:00.000-06:00Way To Go Genie, I am so proud of you, that last s...Way To Go Genie, I am so proud of you, that last shot with the Earthshine is quite the accomplishment!! I am offering free 3D glasses to anyone who wants to post their conjunction pic on my site. You can still see the pairing of Venus and Jupiter for quite awhile although they will start pulling apart from each other from here on in, again way to go!Bob Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06582050569176409358noreply@blogger.com
