And ssoooooooo low in the west!
I did see mercury last night right in that area=2E=2E=2E
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
But how low is ssoooooooo low, Chris=3F The nice interactive planetarium =
at
the Sky View Cafe site shows M38 25 degrees above the horizon at twilight=
(around 8:30 p=2Em=2E)=2E Mercury will just be setting at that time=2E W=
hile it's
hardly as favorably placed as it was a few months ago, I bet it is still
visible (and photographable) during a brief window=2E
