SKY GUY VIEWING ALERT!! 4/3/20 VENUS & PLEIADES

Hey Space Placers!

If it is clear after dark where you live, see the beautiful sky show taking place in the western sky.

Brilliant Venus will be in the beautiful Pleiades star cluster.  This happens every eight years so make it a point to get out - social distancing please - to see this event.

Take an astropic too as this event will be bright enough for any camera that can take a 1 second exposure should be able to capture it.

The sky show will continue through the weekend as Venus moves above the Pleiades.

Enjoy!
