Lifelong companion under the stars. The Conjunction of Venus and Jupiter in the Evening Sky. The picture below was taken on 21 and 22 June. The Moon has moved up due to its orbit around the Earth. Look at Venus and Jupiter, it may not be obvious at first, but if you measure their separation carefully, you will find that on they were nearer to each other on the 22nd compared to 21st. And they will be nearer and nearer for the nights to come! Share on Facebook (Opens in new window). Enter your comment here.

Find us on Google. Bite size Astronomy and related tidbits. I'm having all kinds of fancy notions lately. The most recent of which is designing and building my own mount. Inspired by Astro Physics mounts/piers, Paramount ME, and Gemini MoFoD MkII. This is my equatorial fork mount design. Mainly the idea is heavy duty observatory mount here. I give you the EQF.

Astronomy Box: October 2013
http://astronomybox.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Find us on Google. Bite size Astronomy and related tidbits. I'm in the process of combining my two passions, animation and astronomy. One of these I chose as my career. Can you guess which one? Clue, it's not the one that's confined to hobby status. Now, however, I'm trying to introduce astronomy into my animation work and one solution I've come up with is setting up an astronomy animation website dedicated to illustrative animation about astronomy. It will be freely available for anyone to use.
