By Not Again Until 2492

A VERY rare astronomical event is ongoing: 01/25/2025, 6 planets were aligned (Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Venus, Saturn, Neptune) on 02/28/2025, a seventh planet, Mercury will join. This will not happen again until 2492! Using my iPhone (I don’t have wide field lens for my Canon)
1) Venus is centered and Saturn lower left 2) is a very bright Venus and stars 3) out west window Jupiter is right of trunk & Betelgeuse of triple spoken infamy upper left. AFTER SUNSET GO OUT! LOOK WEST!!!!!

The temperature this morning was 25°F. Wind was calm. There were people stationed all around Jordan lake this morning for the quarterly bald eagle count. Just after the count began this morning the sun began to unfurl its textures and mantle the skies in shimmering glory.
Will be posting eagle count totals at a later date.
