Visual observing of galaxies, nebulae and star clusters – with some solar observing, too
Jupiter and Venus meet
The conjunction of Jupiter (left) and Venus on 11th March 2012 (top) and 12th March 2012 (bottom). Their closest approach was on 13th March but, typically(!) it was cloudy and foggy. The streak in the lower pic isn’t a meteor, it’s a jet contrail.
