I got my timings wrong. By the time I was set up with telescope Venus had come out again So thank you so much for this video. 👏👏👏

[@dakotabrooke7688]

You can also see this on the new moon if you record this will look like a object that's invisible but visible cause it passes the stars or planets its hard to catch

[@Bortle10]

Congratulations, i knew about this, but clouds and rain for weeks in the Netherlands....

[@starman1969]

Thanks. I was very happy to catch this event.

[@sarahillingworth2718]

Don't think I would've seen this in mucky Castleford lol

Boo Sarah

I was too tired to stay up and watch the moon and Venus.
Shame really because at around 4am the moon and Venus looked spectacular in the night sky.

[@starman1969]

They did look a bit special when so close together in the sky, yet, millions of miles apart in reality.

[@carolsmith6012]

I seen it at 4.40 it was amazing

[@K1110.]

❤ Venus.
It rains sulfuric acid. ...
It's close to Earth in size and gravity. ...
Venus is mostly carbon dioxide in its atmosphere. ...
It's the hottest planet because of the greenhouse effect. ...
Venus has an iron core but no magnetic field. ...
It's named after a Roman Goddess. ...
Venus hardly rotates at all.

[@starman1969]

Venus would not be a nice place to live.

[@ofdlttwo]

[@starman1969]
