Saturn and Venus this year in conjunction!

[b][color=#0000FF]40-45 minutes before sunrise, Mercury will pop up in Libra to complete the line up of morning planets. Be sure you have a wide open view of the southeastern sky to see it, since Mercury will only be about 5 degrees high at the time. Maps created with Stellarium.[/color][/b]

Venus meets Saturn in a close conjunction tomorrow morning
Astrobob, November 25, 2012

<<Got your coat, hat and gloves? You’re ready then for tomorrow morning’s close conjunction of Venus and Saturn. The two will be just a half a degree or one full moon diameter apart in the southeastern sky at dawn. Look for fainter Saturn below Venus Monday; on Tuesday they’ll be equally close but switch positions. Though tight as two kernels on a cob, you’ll still be able to separate Venus from Saturn with your naked eye.

Telescope users have the pleasure of observing both planets in the same field of view. Venus presents a waxing gibbous disk, while Saturn’s rings are tilted open enough to be obvious even at 30x. Be sure to look for a little “star” floating immediately to the east of Saturn. That’s Titan, its brightest and largest moon.>>
