Juggling

Hope you've all had a chance to see Venus and Jupiter in the conjunction (first time in a quarter century they've been this "close") they've been having recently. Also in the sky is Mars (eastern sky), Mercury and Uranus (not so easy to spot). Today's Astronomy Picture of the Day celebrates the conjunction of Venus and Jupiter with a little juggling act.

A very pretty conjunction.

Although they didn't come out well, Venus and Jupiter inadvertently cameoed in one of the pictures I took of the Cathedral of St. Paul
