Mars-Neptune Conjunction on December 7, 2018
Mars & Neptune Meet
Mars and Neptune passed near each other around 10 AM on December 7th. They got as
close as 2 arcminutes. The two planets continued to move apart after the conjunction. By
the time I was able to get a telescope on them, after the sun has set, they were already
around 15 arcminutes appart. Still to see two planets together in the eyepiece was a nice
sight.
