Good Red Friday morning, Rallypoint. Today's Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) is titled "Monring Planets, Moon, and Montreal." This image was taken just this past Wednesday morning over the city of Montreal, Canada, and shows a conjunction of the Moon, Jupiter, Mars, and Saturn. You'll likely have to zoom in twice on the APOD itself before you can see all three: from left to right, Saturn, Jupiter (the brightest), Mars, and the Moon just below Jupiter and Mars. There is always something interesting happening in the sky. All we have to do is look up.

"Explanation: Dawn's early light came to Montreal, northern planet Earth, on March 18, the day before the vernal equinox. At the end of that nearly equal night the Moon stands above a dense constellation of urban lights in this serene city and skyscape. Of course the Moon's waning crescent faces toward the rising Sun. Skygazers could easily spot bright Jupiter just above the Moon, close on the sky to a fainter Mars. Saturn, a telescopic favorite, is just a pinprick of light below and farther left of the closer conjunction of Moon, Jupiter and Mars. Near the ecliptic, even Mercury is rising along a line extended to the horizon from Jupiter and Saturn. The elusive inner planet is very close to the horizon though, and not quite visible in this morning's sky."
