Heads up for events correction! Venus, Saturn conjunction.

My apologies if I am wrong but I think that the date and times for the Venus, Saturn conjunction this week in the events calender are incorrect.

According to my Starrynight Pro 6 it should be August 13th (not 14th) and at approx. 17:45-18:00 AWST (depending on your horizon). Please adjust for AEST. At the time stated (03:00 AWST) neither the sun or Venus have risen.

The angular separations are: for the 13th, 23' 14".
for the 14th, 48' 40".

Hope I am correct or there is big egg on my face!
