The Moon and Mars were in conjunction of Thursday to Friday! Mars is down in magnitude at +0.78 as compared to in November when it was a bright minus –2.10, which is brighter than the brightest star Sirius (-1.46), the Dog Star. Still very brilliant. . .I am sharing the above eerie photo of the event as photographed here in Oak Forest, Illinois.
