Science & Space Forums

The Forum is about naked eye backyard astronomy and events that happen during any given month. It's not just intended for the beginner but also for someone who might miss a rare celestial event like the two degree close conjunction between the crescent Moon, Jupiter and Venus on Dec 1, 2008 that hasn't occurred since 1993 and if you missed it this close triangular encounter won’t be seen again until the year 2052. Or like last years Oct thru Dec brightening of Comet Holmes that eventually became the largest naked eye object in our solar system. I hope you'll stop by.
