Following sunset, an interesting conjunction of Saturn and Mercury will happen on February 24th and February 25th. A good Western sky is required as this conjuction will only be about 10 degrees above the horizon.
If you have never seen Mercury, please come out. Saturn and Mercury are 1.5 degrees apart and only 10 degrees above the horizon. This is a rare event with a photo opportunity for club members.
This should be an excellent opportunity to view these in the same binocular or camera field.
We are NOT meeting at the address shown for the location. We will be in the cul-de-sac located next to that home.
