Space/Science » in reply to re: Mars occultation visible from northern US, tonight?

You saw Mercury, too?

No chance for me this time. Clouds and city lights.
Sans fortune.
Though some of you will remember nme posting this a few years ago,
the last time I saw the planet Mercury was on the night on March/31/1997
out in the country in Saskatchewan.
I not only saw Mercury that night, I saw a spectacular view of Comet Hale-Bopp
hanging like a ghostly torch in the sky...And I also saw a brilliant ruddy Mars nearing opposition
that night as well.
Sigh! :-(

Well...I'm going over to the OT page.
