Massing of Venus, Mars, Spica and the crescent Moon, Saturday September 11 2010

Evening sky looking North-west showing the Crescent Moon, Venus, Mars, Spica and Saturn at 7:00 pm local time on Saturday September 11. Click to embiggen.

This Saturday see a rather delightful grouping of Venus, Mars, the bright star Spica and the Crescent Moon. You can cover this collection of worlds with one hand. The best views will be between 6:45 and 8:30 pm.

In you are in Adelaide, and have to leave the Royal Adelaide Show before the fireworks, look to the west and this celestial display may make up for it.
