A nearly Full Moon was on clear display tonight, lighting up a pleasantly mild July evening. Saturn was close, just below the Moon, but I opted not to try to bring them into the same picture. Worth noting is that four planets were visible in the night sky at this time: Saturn, Jupiter, Venus, and Mars, though Mars had just peeked over the horizon and was far out of my viewing range.

We drove home from the Eastern Iowa airport after 10 pm last night. Venus, Jupiter, Saturn w/Moon, and bright Mars all stretched across the Earth’s sky. It was impressive to see all 5 at once. We recalled the conjunction of the Moon with Mercury, Venus, then Jupiter from the more recent days.
