FINALLY the cloud cleared today, and feeling like Trinity seeing the clear sky for the first time, in the Matrix sequel, I went up to the castle and got some pics...
That last one shows the ISS moving through the sky too... -------------------- |

Hi, Stu,
It looks like the most vertical* will be about the 25th or 26th, but about 10 degrees apart. The Moon joins them then, as well. But it'll be a great sight anytime this month and early April, so I hope that sometime in the second half of the month you get a spell of good weather. *I ran Cartes du Ciel for my location, at 41 degrees latitude. Verticality may be on a slightly different date for other latitudes! all the best, bob http://bkellysky.wordpress.com/ |
