The astronomical conjunction of Jupiter and Venus in the constellation Gemini returned as a spectacle in the sky on Monday night, the two planets appearing closer together than they were yesterday. Look again towards the sunset tomorrow for a similar show. #conjunction #planets #jupiter #venus #gemini #nightsky #astronomy

The astronomical conjunction of Jupiter and Venus followed the setting Sun in the western sky on Sunday night, and the spectacle returns tonight in the constellation Gemini. The two planets will remain together for the remainder of the week as the bright Venus rises higher in the sky and separates from Jupiter. The planet Mercury is nearby, setting nearer the Sun. #conjunction #planets #jupiter #venus #gemini #nightsky #astronomy
