Sky

Just to put it into perspective, the last time a the great conjunction (totally what it's called, btw) this close happened - it was March 4, 1226.

With so many troubles and worries down here on this pale blue dot we call Earth, perhaps we should turn our gaze skyward this month.

The site shows a schedule of when satellites will be visible to the naked eye in your area and also tells you which satellites they are by name.

There will be 17 satellites visible to the naked eye tonight, weather permitting (and it appears that the weather will permit!).

There will be a line of 42 satellites visible to the naked eye later this week, weather permitting (and it appears that the weather will permit!).

It's the closest our celestial little sister will be to Earth all year.
