Jupiter & Venus on August 27th They Will Be Less than ˝° apart

Venus-Jupiter conjunction. Starting about 20 minutes after sunset, look low above the horizon due west (left of where the Sun went down). Bring binoculars. The two planets will be less than ˝° apart at the time of twilight for most of the world, and only about 0.1° apart for the longitudes of the Americas. That's so close that you may need binoculars to see that they are two objects, not one! Randy
