Moon Jupiter Conjunction Tonight

Right now if you go out and look up at the moon (if it's dark where you live), you'll see Jupiter right next to the moon.

This is the closest that the Moon and Jupiter will get until the year 2026.

Here is a couple of pictures I snapped with my small Sony Cam Corder:





Here is a link on it too:

Moon Jupiter Conjunction 21 January 2013

Hoping that some of my fellow ATS members that have their scopes out capture some zoomed in pics (mine are all put away for now).

Thanks for sharing. I actually saw this on the way home and opened my Google Sky app. I didnt know that little bit of fact though on 2026. Waiting about an hour or so to set my telescopes up for some gazing.

Just went outside, and noticed it was cloudy. Thankfully, I could still see Jupiter through the clouds.
Thanks for the heads up.
