Peak Luna
What did I just see through my Telescope!?
Ok, So I was out tonight (its half 12 here, UK) Trying to catch a glimpse of some meteors before its peak on tuesday, and I saw about 4 in 45 mins! hehe
But, I saw a Very bright star slowly rising in the night sky, The first thing I thought was Jupiter, because it was the next brightest thing in the sky next to the moon!
I got my telescope on it (Which isnt the highest spec telescope) and at first it was just what seemed a bright starm but as I changed the focus, It turned into a shape I can only describe as a "Mini creasant moon"
A bit like this, but really small/blurry - http://img2.travelblog.org/Photos/5703/93701/t/600677-Crescent-moon--Luna-creciente-0.jpg
What was this I was witnessing?
Thanks in advanced =)
Hmmm this is an interesting question. One would jump to the conclusion of Venus, but Venus is currently not visible. The only other planet to have phases would be Mercury, and Mercury is visible. I'm not sure how big it showed up in your telescope, but the only thing I can think of is Mercury. Sorry, but I can't confirm it. But Mercury isn't as bright as you described it. Could it be you pointed your telescope at the wrong thing? Because the brightest object in the night sky next to the moon, currently, is Jupiter. I'm going to have to go with Mercury on this one. Good luck and happy observing.

Let It Ripp
$4.37 There may not be a serious smooth jazz fan alive who, even on first hearing, wouldn't recognize the band playing the title track. Such is the compositional imprint guitarist and leader Russ Freeman has left on the genre. On the other hand, his writing style, even the way he voices his music and the overall sound of his band, has been so imitated and saturated that the Rips just being the Rips has ... |
