On my way out of the driveway at 6:30 this morning, I was treated to a nice
view of Mercury in mid-twilight. It's at about 7 o'clock position with respect
to Jupiter. The "Sky Gazer's Almanac" from the January 2005 S&T shows this as
being the best of Mercury's elongations for the year. It is a couple degrees
above the horizon at astronomical twilight, and that's about as good as it gets
from our latitude.
It looks like it will be visible for another week and a half.
