I was listening to a thing on the radio about this and it's not a common occurance in the positioning of the stars relative to our moon. Not sure when it started, but during the 12 days you will be able to see each of those planets and they will all be within a close distance to our moon; from our point of view. Haven't been able to see any yet, cloudy nights.

I'm an amatuer astronomer. I try to keep track of the locations of the planets regularly. It is a rare thing to be able to see all 5 planets (the other 3 are not readily visible with the naked eye) in the sky at the same time.

do you have a telescope? watching the stars use to be a great hobby of mine!
I've seen some great things in my little 4 inch reflector.

Friend,
How much gold did you fork over for that 4 inch device for scoping?
