Moon Jupiter conjunction.

Last day of work this week. I take the dogs out at 3am and see the sky is beautiful!

The moon was very clear and sharp in a good sky. Just a few degrees above it Jupiter was shining brilliantly. 

Twenty minutes later, go out the front with my trash for pickup and it's starting to cloud over!

Just wonderful Florida rainy season weather.

What a coincidence at half world apart.

At about half past five I was feeding my cat when I noticed the Moon -Jupiter conjunction.

I took some pics with my All View phone.

Latter I checked in Stellarium if it was really a conjunction. The condition is the apparent distance should be smaller than four degrees.

Yes, it was, the apparent distance between the Moon and Jupiter was two deg. and 42 minutes.

Clear sky, Mircea
