The separation between Venus and Jupiter grows, now at 17° 30' 01" on this 18th day after their conjunction. Venus is now at magnitude -4.01 while Jupiter is magnitude -2.07; on this evening, Uranus is magnitude +5.82 and because it happens to be near the star SAO 93164, which is a magnitude +6.30 F class star, we can easily see its movement over the last 4 days, by comparing it to the scene on March 15. |
