So I didn't get to see Venus and Jupiter clowning around with the moon.  Too many buildings and too many clouds.  Too much work to check as often as I'd have like to.  Lucky for me, Johnny Horne of North Carolina took a great photo. 


I just think it's killer that these two planets could appear so close together from here.  Venus, which lots of people used to think had life because of it's size in proportion to Earth, was found to be so inhospitable that equipment we send there doesn't last more than 45 minutes, and Jupiter, thought to be so cold that nothing could live there is now one of the better hopes for finding extraterrestrial life.
