Morning Planets
At 4.30ish this morning, Jupiter and Mars were visible near Alpha Libra. Jupiter is bright, Mars less so. They will be near each other for most of January.
I feel this will be a big year for observing planets with oppositions of Jupiter, Saturn and Mars in May, June & July respectively.
The opposition of Mars is the more notable since it will be at its 15-year closest point. I feel that my days of rising early to check them all out are about to begin!
