Good catch Rob and I am pleased to see an image as the pair get close.
I have been outside, with scope on the ready, on both of the last two nights, but it has been totally clouded out. Tonight and tomorrow night look to be just as bad! So I am unlikely to be able to see the conjunction at all.
By the way, it will still be an interesting conjunction on Tuesday evening. Neptune, Mars, Hydor and a fine crescent Moon will be in a line spanning just over 3 degrees.
Steve.
