I wish I had a tripod, because I couldn’t keep the camera still to take the photo’s. I don’t know if this was just Australia or if other parts of the world will get to see it tonight. The moon, Jupiter and Venus all lined up to make a smiley face in the sky. I thought Tim was pulling my leg when he told me it was going to happen but sure enough when we came out of the pool there it was smiling down at us.
Ahh. It is just Australia. Here’s what I found.
THE world may be facing its worst economic turmoil in decades, but the heavens are about to smile on Australia.
A rare cosmic alignment tonight will produce a smiling face – or an emoticon, depending on your generation – high over the country.
How awesome that you had a smiley face. We had an upside down frowning face.
We’ve been watching Venus & Jupiter for a couple weeks now. When I first spotted them, I said they were planets, of course Zac, being the “know-it-all” teenager disagreed. LOL
We got very lucky and got to see glimpses of the “face” tonite, it’s been a rainy day, but we had enough breaks in the clouds to watch the moon get closer to the planets at the evening went on.
