I saw the planets this morning in the east sky today.
Venus, Jupiter and Mars are supposed to be visible in a row in the morning eastern sky today and tomorrow. Also, maybe Mercury may be visible on the horizon.
I saw Venus and Jupiter.
I haven’t seen Mars yet but I will look again closer to sunrise.
I don’t think I will be able to see mercury because I can’t see the actual horizon (better on the water they say).
They are all supposed to be in a row.
Mars is supposed to be in the middle of the other two.
If you missed it, you are supposed to be able to see them tomorrow before sunrise also.
A few weeks ago, I saw the total eclipse of the red moon.
That required a lot of patience because of the sporadic cloud cover.
When there was only one quarter visible, I went in because the clouds were thick.
I watched on-line to see when the total eclipse was supposed to happen and went back out at that time.
The clouds in that area had cleared and the eclipse was clearly visible.
The moon seemed to look more 3-D when the glow was coming from behind.
It resembled a large red ping pong ball suspended way up high.
I don’t know what it is about viewing the odd special event in the sky like a solar or lunar eclipse, but it makes me excited like a kid.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t ever want to go out there, but I just really enjoy getting the chance to see them from here.
Nope, could only see the two.
