This week from the Southern Hemisphere

For the rest of us, just stand upside-down.

==== IN THE SKY THIS WEEK ===

The New Moon is Monday June 26. In the early evening (6-7pm local time) you
can see ruddy Mars, golden Saturn and coppery Mercury strung out in a line
just above the north-western horizon. Mercury comes closer to Saturn during
the week, and next Wednesday 28 and Thursday 29 the thin crescent Moon joins
the line-up - get the cameras out for this. In the dawn sky bright Venus is
readily seen above the north-eastern horizon. On the morning of Friday June
23, the crescent Moon will be to the left of Venus, above the Pleiades
cluster, a rather attractive sight. For further information see
