happy dance (of jupiter and venus)

SUNSET SKY SHOW: When the sun goes down tonight, step outside and look west. Venus and Jupiter are shining brightly in the twilight sky, converging for a close encounter less than one week from now. Jim Peacock sends this picture from Red Cliff, Wisconsin:

"I was happy that our evening sky over Lake Superior was clear for viewing the two planets!" says Peacock. "The wind off the frozen Great Lake was brisk, yet worth it to see Venus and Jupiter get cozy."
