Crescent Moon - Venus - Jupiter

So here's the best light show around.  Just look in the SouthWestern Sky - there is a conjunction or alignment of Venus and Jupiter with the moon in the southwestern sky -- it is most amazing during the early evening - and will be for the next couple of nights.  On Tuesday Venus will be eclipsed by the moon.  As the month continues Venus and Jupiter will continue to move apart.  Venus, Jupiter and Moon will not be this close again until 2052.

Enjoy the celestial night sky.  Stop the car on the way home from work.  Go outside and check it out.  It is beautiful.  I pulled into my favorite look-out in between the cemetery and the highway - there is a high spot, and a little park.  You can see south and west and downtown Minneapolis always is a treat.  So I stopped tonight and just watched and marveled at our amazing universe.  

It's a must see.
