Scozzie   10 #25 Posted March 11, 2012 was one of them very Yellow in colour?  I was looking at it last night in Holmsfield. There were no lights, so it was really clear. People tried to convince m it was a satelite, but it wasn't moving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

HeadingNorth   11 #27 Posted March 11, 2012 Infact, I have just seen Uranus (It's the joke that just keeps 'Giving')  Only among people who don't know how to pronounce Uranus.  It's a sad reflection on our education system that probably 95% of us fall into that category!

HeadingNorth   11 #31 Posted March 11, 2012 Best hurry, or leave it until tomorrow; Venus and Jupiter are setting, and won't be clearly visible for much longer. (Venus never sets later than three hours after the Sun.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
