Look Up! Venus and Jupiter Are Lining Up for an Amazing Optical ... (Inverse)

What Is A Planetary Conjunction? A conjunction happens when two planets appear to be really close to each other in the night sky. On the night of March 1, the ...

Venus is the brightest object in the night sky (second only to the Moon), and Jupiter is only slightly dimmer, so they should be easy to spot if you have clear weather and reasonably dark skies. A planetary conjunction will also have no impact whatsoever on your love life, your health, or your overall fate (unless you meet the love of your life or catch the flu while stargazing, but that’s not the planets’ fault). And that alignment creates the optical illusion that Venus and Jupiter are less than a Moon’s width apart when they’re really about 400 million miles away from each other.

Jupiter and Venus to come closest on this day: Check date, where to ... (News9 Live)

The planetary alignment, also known as a conjunction, is a formation when two planets seem close to one another or even touch the earth's night sky.

The distance will be further reduced by 2.3 degrees by February 27 and finally, on March 1, they will be closest at 0.5 degrees apart only. These two planets began their cosmic dance on February 21 and will come closest to each other in the next month. This time, the two brightest planets in the universe, Venus and Jupiter, will become the major attraction for an astrophile, a person who loves astronomy or constantly gazes at the stars, with their movements in the sky.

On this episode of AirSpace, we unpack how JunoCam has contributed to science and completely changed the way we view this beautiful gas giant. But, thanks to the insistence of adamant Juno team members, Juno got JunoCam. And when Juno was proposed and funded, a visible light camera wasn’t really needed to meet the mission’s science goals.

How to See Venus and Jupiter Cozy Up in the Night Sky This Month (CNET)

The two planets will be closest on March 1, but you can follow along as they slowly snuggle up.

The two planets are in reality extremely far apart and in no danger of booping each other. They won't be as cozy from here on out, but you can still add the moon to your nightly skywatching menu. It helps that they're the brightest planets in the sky, so locating them should be pretty easy.
