I traveled to south central Pennsylvania in search of clear skies to capture the grouping of Venus, Jupiter, the Moon, and Mercury in the evening sky. Here we see them from a vantage point near Newville, Pennsylvania over the distant ridgeline north of the Kittaninny Mountain Tunnel. Venus is magnitude -4.02, Jupiter is -1.86, and Mercury is +0.67 this evening. Unannotated image. |
