Two most brightest planets (Venus -4 mag, Jupiter -1.7 mag) are only moon diameter away from each other in closest position.
So you can really see both planets in same field of view even with telescope.
(with low magnification/wide FOV)
At time of conjunction they're between Virgo and Leo
On 9th/10th day also moon "joins to game".

To get eastern longitude put "-" before degrees.
