The Moon, Jupiter, Venus in conjunction
Did you see it?

Last night, the Moon, Jupiter, Venus in conjunction. That means they were all lined up in a particular order!
It was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen, and it's not going to happen again until July 21st 2036! Of course the fact that it made a smiley face was the just the best side effect 
Were you lucky enough to see it? I didn't have a camera on me to take any piccies but a quick search around the wonder that is Flickr turned up a few good images.
Celestial events like these always make me think about how insignificant we really are when you look at us on a cosmic scale.

Hello Tassja,
Yes credit should have been cited, so I humbly apologise to you and the rest of the web for this oversite. However, I did included a link to the Flickr search that they came from, and didn't lay claim to them myself.
Please feel free to correct this mistake by looking through the images and citing the picture takers here.

Nice photos. How about giving credit to the people who you nicked them from. That 3rd photo was by Simon Banton, nice one Simon
So, what about the other photos?
