A nice weather toonight in Paris. The astronomer François Colas show us the close encounter between the Moon and Venus, from the roof of the Paris Observatory. This old building was built under the reign of Louis XIV, nearly 350 years ago. At this time the observatory was out of Paris in the country. But the city became biger and biger, and finaly absorbed it.

Please find below two images of the conjunction I took on March 26, 2012 from the banks of the Viverone Lake (few km from Turin, Italy) where signs of spring were all around with trees full of blossoms.

Copyright: 2012 Craig & Tammy Temple Captured from our driveway, looking toward the western sky, is this rendezvous between the Moon, Venus, and Jupiter at 6:54pm CDST on March 26, 2012. The 3.93 day old waxing crescent Moon was just a little over 2 degrees seperated from Venus with Jupiter about 12 degrees below the Moon.

The cerscent, waxing Moon meets the Planets Venus and Jupiter over the banks of the Danube river in Linz, Austria, on March 26, 2012. A number of stars is also visible in the twilight sky, including part of the constellation Orion at left, the constellation Cassiopeia towards the right, and the Hyades and Plejades clusters near the Moon and the planets. (View the image at full size to see the stars, or follow the linck to the flickr page for identification of the celestial objects.)

Conjunction over the Danube by herbraab, on Flickr: This image shows the crescent Moon passing the planet Venus, and was taken somewhat later on the same evening. The moon's dark side is illuminated by Earthshine. Light from Venus is diffracted by a thin cloud layer, forming an atmospheric Corona around the planet.

Over the ruins of the Lanzada's tower, built in the twelfth century as part of a coastal defense system against invasions by the Normans, and demolished in the fifteenth century during the Irmandiños riots. Beside him is the Romanesque Chapel of Our Lady of a Lanzada of the late of the twelfth century, erected on an ancient sanctuary dating from the beginning of our era and famous in the NW corner of Spain for its fertility rites ( the bath of the nine waves).
