Just a quick shout about the coming conjunction this weekend. The closest approach is at 19 UT on 30 April when the planets will be just 1/4 degree apart. In the UK the best naked eye visibility window is on the morning before and after, i.e. around 5:30am on either 30 April or 1 May.

The UK forecast for Saturday morning looks particularly promising. I'm hoping to get both planets in the same field of view of my Mak 127.

Clear skies,
