Planetary Alignment!
I must live in an era of extraordinary cosmic coincidences. Another event is set to occur that won’t reoccur until I’m long dead. I’m kind of bummed about missing our last total solar eclipse but at least the next one will be in 2012 so with luck, I will still be alive. From the 24th to the 27th of this month, the planets Mercury, Venus, and Saturn will converge in the early evening sky coming within a degree of each other. You could cover them up with the end of a finger with your arm fully stretched out. Mercury and Venus will actually be so close, that you could see them in the same telescope view.
