Check that out!
Later on this coming week, it is expected that Mars, Venus, and the Moon will come so close to one another in our sky, that they will be separated by less than a single degree in the sky on February 20! While given the moon’s moves along its orbit rather fast around the Earth, Mars and Venus will remain very close to one another through at least the next night or so, providing viewers with the fairly rare event of conjunction, or when two objects in the sky appear really close to one another. Despite the fact they are not particularly common, already we’ve had one conjunction last month in which Venus and Mercury appeared close to one another. Some scientists are already saying that given the frequency of expected conjuctions within the rest of the year, that 2015 should be declared “The Year of the Conjunctions.” This particularly conjunction is currently ongoing, and is expected to continue up through the beginning of next month.

Wow! That’s so interesting and is such a unique positioning of the Moon, Venus, and Mars. I think it’s very interesting that 2015 will be the “Year of the Conjunctions” What other amazing conjunctions do you expect/wish to see this year?
