Shaking fists at clouds here, but if it’s clear with you #DoLookUp!
Check out this gorgeous sunset/moonset/Venus-set timelapse from last night😍. If you've got clear skies tonight, #DoLookUp! Venus is now below the crescent moon. Taurus is off to the left (looks like a V). The heavenly 7-sisters star cluster (Pleiades) is right below the moon!🧪🔭

🥳 It's Day 5 of #NationalAstronomyWeek and most of the UK is cloud free, so you all have no excuse! Go outside and #DoLookUp. 🔭🧪
This is the view from my home in Portobello Edinburgh 🏴, looking South West! 🤩

If you've got clear skies, go outside and wave at our neighbour who is looking particularly stunning tonight. And if you have them, root out the binoculars to get a closer look at the grey maria: ~3.5 billion years ago these were seas of molten lava 🤓 #supermoon 🔭🧪

#PlanetaryParade excitement is fantastic! #DoLookUp But I'm baffled by the media saying 25th Jan is a "once in a lifetime event" 🔭🧪
The awesome foursome Mars, Jupiter, Venus & Saturn have been on display for weeks + Neptune & Uranus if you have a telescope. We won't see Mercury until late Feb🤔

Today's peachy #moonrise from Portobello, Edinburgh 🏴
I'm a big fan of the (almost) full moon, but its stunning brightness is going to make it extra difficult to spot the #leonids meteor shower which peaks overnight 🤔😠

My neighbour was sad - tonight's poor cloud forecast meant she would "miss the great #planetaryparade". Good news: this is an ongoing phenomenon so #DoLookUp whenever your skies clear!
Mercury is in the sunset West, getting easier to spot as days pass! Venus, Jupiter & Mars resplendent as ever. 🔭
