New Years Eve Lineup.

Evening sky as seen facing west in Adelaide at 9:00 pm ACST, December 31. Similar views will be seen elsewhere in Australia at similar local times.

2009 is almost upon us, but 2008 has one last beautiful astronomical view for us. The thin crescent Moon will be near Venus, with Mercury and Jupiter close by each other. This will be a very attractive start to the New Years Eve festivities.

So have fun everybody, stay safe, and if you are up late enough you can look at Saturn rising in the early morning sky. See you all in 2009.
