Conjunction
December 04, 2008
I had completely forgotten about the planetary conjunction on Monday but was reminded as I was walking on a bridge near Shin-Osaka station. What a great sight. The moon was just under Venus and Jupiter and it made a happy face. I took it as a sign that things are going to look better. I finally remembered to bring my camera out the next day but by this time, the moon had already “ascended” way past the planets. Too bad.
It’s rare to see stars in Osaka but luckily planets are very visible once the sun goes down.
