Title: Venus - Jupiter Conjunction
Location:
Date / Time: Jan 22, 2019 - Prior to Sunrise
Comments: VENUS AND JUPITER IN CONJUNCTION: Venus and Jupiter are converging for a beautiful conjunction in Ophiuchus, the unofficial "13th constellation of the zodiac." The two bright planets are easy to see even from light-polluted urban areas and are being photographed by many observers surrounded by the morning-glow of sunrise. Watch in the predawn sky, the 3rd week in January, as Venus & Jupiter appear closer together each morning. Our 2 brightest planets are moving toward a "conjunction" on the morning of Jan 22nd, when they'll appear less than 2.5º apart.
