HOW ABOUT TWO CONJUNCTIONS IN THE SAME WEEK ?
LEMME SHOW YOU!
HIT THE DARKNESS BEFORE SUNRISE AND LOOK EAST.
IF YOU’RE LUCKY, YOU’LL SEE SATURN AND MARS IN CONJUNCTION RISE BEFORE THE SUN ALL WEEK LONG!
SATURN WILL THEN PASS MARS IN THE SKY ON FRIDAY THE 12th.
GO ABOUT YOUR DAY THEN HIT THE TWILIGHT!
AROUND SUNSET LOOK WEST AND WILL SEE JUPITER SHINING BRIGHTLY ON WEDNESDAY IT’LL BE IN A CONJUNCTION WITH THE MOON!
AS APRIL WEARS ON JUPITER WILL GET HARDER TO SEE AS IT HEADS BEHIND THE SUN, BUT SATURN WILL GET EASIER TO SEE AS IT IS EMERGING FROM BEHIND THE SUN!
ENJOY THESE TWO CONJUNCTIONS ONE DAY!
CONJUNCTIONS AREN’T ASTRONOMICALLY IMPORTANT, BECAUSE THE PLANETS ARE VERY FAR APART, THEY JUST LOOK CLOSE FROM OUR PERSPECTIVE.
ENJOY THE PLANETS, AND THANKS FOR WATCHING STAR GAZERS.
