Greetings: You might have read in the news
about the close conjunction of Venus and the moon
today (March 26, 2012), and that it would make brilliant
Venus easy to find in the daytime sky. Fortunately
for me, the Erie, PA, sky is crystal clear today,
so I grabbed the camera and tripod to get a picture
of it. The moon subtends an angle of anout
0.5 degrees, so that makes the separation from Venus
about 4.4 degrees. That's pretty close for a conjunction.
