Planets Galore

Good viewing this morning from Brisbane...finally. Yeah, I know we need the rain!

Humidity was up unfortunately giving that fuzzy halo effect, but having Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn all in the same sky was worth the looking. Jupiter is like a footy at the moment.

Is Mercury up already?

I saw Venus, Jupiter and Saturn earlier on.. Pluto is also well placed early in the morning if you're keen

Mars was earlier in the evening/morning, but yes Mercury is up - a few degrees below Venus. It was virtually a fat crescent Mercury but that could have been the fuzziness of the atmosphere.

Pluto is a bit small for my set up.
