The Moon, Venus and Jupiter Alignment, Late November - Early December 2008




Title:
The Moon, Venus and Jupiter Alignment, Late November - Early December 2008

Description:
Watch in HQ. This is an amazing phenomenon in which the moon, Venus and Jupiter "align" or come together quite close in the night/dusk sky between the time period of November 30-December 2, particularly on December 1, 2008 is the peak of the event. Unluckily the weather wasn't cooperating on Monday night for us here in San Jose, CA. Got densely foggy...But this is a nice video I made that'll still be quite wonderful! ( just say the "before and after" the moon, Venus and Jupiter aligned) hehe. Some astronomy to know: Our moon is about 252,000 miles from Earth while Venus is 94 million miles away and Jupiter is 540 million miles away. The next time the two planets and the moon will make this rare alignment will be on November 18, 2052!

Marina State Beach, CA and Ocean Sunset
Watch in HQ please :) In this video, it shows my cousins Gretchen and Steven and I enjoy a late afternoon at Marina State Beach, CA. Record high temps were expected early this week, around in the low 90's inland! So I decided why not go to the beach to relax and escape the heat. So here, the 3 of us chilled and walked around Marina State Beach. It was so refreshing to feel the cold ocean on our feet since it was so unseasonably warm lately. Then when it was around 7:30 or so, we decided to ...
Last Sunset of Year 2008/Venus and the Moon Alignment (December 31, 2008)
Watch in HQ. This video shows the last daylight of year 2008 (last sunset). And afterwards, it shows another alignment of the moon and Venus. We had dense fog advisory for our area that evening so we were lucky to get a bit of a clearing to see this phenomenon. It was a nice way to end the year. Music: Selena - Dreaming of You
