The night sky on 21-12-2012

Thanks Shahrul! (from Such Pretty Canvas) for prompting me on how beautiful the night sky was last 2 nights. We rushed out to see hundreds of glittering stars and moon so bright. Our place was a bit bright due to the street lights but still Orion, Sirius, the moon, were all very clearly visible. And I thought that was Jupiter that I saw shining so bright left of On the left of Orion. Could be Capella but it wasn't twinkling though...

 

Faiz was confident that was Capella but I strongly doubted it. Must be the giant Jupiter... Hehe..

Last night wasn't so bad either but less show. Bit thick on cloud cover....

Above snapshots show how the planets are all aligned including the moon and our sun. Enjoy....

  1. My pleasure :). It was indeed a brilliant night. I had to text ya, LOL. We were lucky. I think you're right about Jupiter :). Tonight is cloudy though.
