Look Up In The Sky Tonight…..Where Ever You Live In The World

This will be worth it.  Now get the clouds rolling along out of the way.

When the sun goes down tonight, step outside and look south.  Beaming through the twilight is one of the prettiest things you’ll ever see–a tight three-way conjunction of Venus, Jupiter and the crescent Moon.  The event is visible from all parts of the world, even from light-polluted cities.  People in New York and Hong Kong will see it just as clearly as astronomers watching from remote mountaintops. Only cloudy weather or a midnight sun (sorry Antarctica!) can spoil the show.
