Ooh I wonder if that led to an occultation of Saturn by the Moon.

I saw Venus emerging from occultation by the Moon once, it was really impressive.

It was a total fluke too, I had no idea it was going to happen.

I done wrote about it on my blog

More evidence of Planet X discovered. scared

An extremely distant dwarf planet, named The Goblin, has been discovered in observations that are redefining the outer reaches of the solar system.

Astronomers made the discovery while hunting for a hypothetical massive planet, known as Planet Nine, that is suspected to be in orbit far beyond Pluto in a mysterious region known as the Oort Cloud. Planet Nine has not yet been seen directly, but The Goblin appears to be under the gravitational influence of a giant unseen object, adding to astronomers’ certainty that it is out there.

Why are they calling it Planet 9? "Planet 9," isn't exciting! It's Planet X! rant

I never bought into all that anti-Pluto nonsense. Colbert

Mars and the Moon are reasonably close together in the southern sky RIGHT NOW.

Mars is the bright yellowish 'star' at about 4 o'clock to the Moon, about, ooh, 12 Full Moon widths away or about 16 widths of the Moon as it currently looks away.

My information is that it will take place on Monday morning (UK time) rather than Sunday?
