Reality420 (OP) User ID: 64811135 United States 02/20/2015 02:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Just a reminder: Tonight and tomorrow night for the Venus-Mars-Moon show. Check the link in the OP. You can go here for an interactive planetarium: [link to www.skyviewcafe.com] This requires JAVA to run. I like it because it auto-selects some place near your IP location and has a nice interface. It also has a lot of other information in the tabbed pages. Advance the time until just at sunset. Go to the left Options Change the 1st entry to: Horizon - 45° Span Go into the display area and drag to the west until you see Venus, Mars, Moon. Advance time as required. Try it. Clear skies and have fun. R.

If anyone wants to see what our European friends have already seen, the spaceweather image page from Rachel's link is: [link to spaceweathergallery.com] They will continue to get closer together as time goes on this evening so we in the western hemisphere will see them closer than they are showing.

Em18966 User ID: 66273340 United States 02/20/2015 05:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Mercury was in retrograde, that period just ended. There is always a waxing and waning period with these things, and this cusp has been particularly extreme - do you feel like these other celestial happenings are impacting our collective energy in some way? OP or anyone with insight? |

Venus was a dazzling bright diamond and Mars was a dusky red garnet next to the thin crescent moon. I'm sure some of the photogs will get breathtaking images. Have fun. R.

Lil Sis User ID: 67104479 United States 02/20/2015 08:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Still dusk here, but it looks relatively clear. well, partly cloudy. I am hoping. Edit for later post: Only caught a glimpse of the peachy colored moon before a big cloud moved in and blocked it all. But the moon was beautiful in among those dark blue clouds. Maybe tomorrow night Last Edited by Lil Sis on 02/20/2015 10:20 PM ************************************************************************ Corruptisima re publica plurimae leges. ~ Terence |
