(Edit: I got the date wrong its 1623). Enjoy the video:Btw the last conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn occurred in 1563 and the next one will happen 7541. So many people never had this happen in their lifetimes.

Btw the last conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn occurred in 1563 and the next one will happen 7541. So many people never had this happen in their lifetimes.
Did you go somewhere with good viewing and see it? I got home late from going out to see Christmas lights around town with my family last night and read your posts about it. Thought about going out again to see if I could see it, but I was pretty tired and plus with all the city light where I live I'm not sure I would have seen much. Probably would have been awesome if I'd been out in the desert somewhere.(Edit: I got the date wrong its 1623). Enjoy the video:
There is a conjunction every 20 years, although this one is exceptionally close. There will be another nearly as close in 2080. This one was about .1 degrees apart, and the 2080 conjunction will be about .1 degrees apart, but slightly more than last night.Btw the last conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn occurred in 1563 and the next one will happen 7541.

Well, that's a relief. I might still be around in 2080 and, with any luck, reliable electrical power will be a rarity by then, so viewing will probably be great, unless it's cloudy. With my luck, it'll be cloudy.There is a conjunction every 20 years, although this one is exceptionally close. There will be another nearly as close in 2080.

So, last night was fairly exceptional, but not staggeringly so. It was also nice to have it on the Winter Solstice, so close to Christmas.

The worry if is we manage to stay alive until then.Well, that's a relief. I might still be around in 2080 and, with any luck, reliable electrical power will be a rarity by then, so viewing will probably be great, unless it's cloudy. With my luck, it'll be cloudy.
