El Karacho1647545492 Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Anyone else see this last night? It was a clear night in Boston but my parents informed me it was cloudy in parts of Cbus so they didn't get to see it. If you looked at the moon last night you undoubtedly saw two very very bright cosmic objects next to it, those would be the aforementioned planets. I'm having a hard time finding pictures to post, I'll get back to it if this thread gets any responses. edit: according to some articles, it should still be somewhat visible tonight. keep an eye out, it was pretty cool.

Casper Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 What am I looking at? The sky. With a moon. And two planets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillJoy Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Yup..... they have been visible the last few nights. I think, by the time they are gone, they are supposed to be almost "touching". At least that is what Channel 10's local Morning Weather Guy said.....

Better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
