"Jupiter & Saturn dancing in the sky! 🪐⭐ What a spectacular time to witness these brilliant planets in the night sky. As the conjunction approaches on December 21st, these two planets will become closer and closer. On the 21st they will only be 0.1 degree apart! 😯"Photo credit: Niccole Neely

"The attached image file represents my one (and only) foray into planet photography without a telescope. As soon as Jupiter was visible this evening I took some experimental shots with various camera settings using my most powerful camera lens with a teleconverter. To my surprise, it was possible to make out Saturn and it's disk a little bit. It is in the upper part of the shot with Jupiter below. No moons of Jupiter in this shot...just surprised that it was even possible to see Saturn and it's disk upon zooming into the shoot. I'll be back on location tomorrow and Monday evening to get scenic shots with Saturn & Jupiter in them. Enjoy!"Dennis Taylor

"Good evening, abc15 weather team: Moon is ever beautiful. I tried to capture with camera the Saturn and Jupiter looking so close together, but they are actually not."Kohinoor Kar
