The sky was clear this morning in the Phoenix area, so I got a good view = of Mars close to Venus. They are approaching conjunction; by Saturday = morning Mars will appear less than 2 degrees to the right of the = much-brighter Venus. Look in the East-Southeast about an hour before = sunrise. On a related note, I finally uploaded the rest of my photos of last = spring's planetary alignment; now the sequence is complete from = mid-April to early June: http://pages.prodigy.net/pam.orman/JoeHotstuff.html Put your cursor over each image to see the labels. --Joe Orman Joe Orman's Photo Pages: http://pages.prodigy.net/pam.orman/JoeGallery.html -- See message header for info on list archives or unsubscribing, and please send personal replies to the author, not the list.
