Description: i took video of the moon and venus last night to show how they were in similar phases. thanks to skyviewcafe at http://www.skyviewcafe.com for the software that let me show the orbital positions. although i didn't mention it in the video, this will only apply for 2007. around august 17 is when venus will pass through inferior conjunction and be only 43 million km from earth. |

| kwakhed23 ::: Favorites 2007-09-04 01:18:53 thanks! and thanks for pointing that out -- yes, it was one of galileo's five observations that got him in trouble with the church. it's also the strongest observation of his for disproving geocentric models of the solar system. __________________________________________________ | |
