That's Venus and not Jupiter. (Also Mercury but it's less obvious / noticeable in the sky). Why? Because Mercury and Venus are inferior planets.

Inferior planets: Those which lie closer to the Sun than the Earth (Mercury and Venus).
Superior planets: Those which lie further from the Sun than the Earth.

I'm not sure I want to watch that video.

I can tell from just what I can see there in your post that it probably involves science...............




and we don't like no science stuff around here.

You’d be surprised how many people go their entire lives without understanding that.

Not only is she hot, but she can write backwards so we can read it through the clear board.

So, the eastern elongation of Venus occurs in the western (sunset) sky. Well that clears things up. Prob’ly I need to watch it a few more times.

She also has one on the phases of the moon.

But what she needs to do is draw the earth large enough to have a lit up (daylight) side and a dark side with the approximate times of day marked on it; 12 noon pointing towards the sun on the daylight side, 12 midnight pointing away from the sun on the dark side.

She needs arrows to show the moon is going counter-clockwise. The earth is also rotating counterclockwise so the numbering of the hours goes counter-clockwise too.

The boundary on the earth where light goes to dark should be marked “6pm” and the boundary on the earth where dark goes to light should be marked “6am”. The direction of travel of the earth in its orbit of the sun is the 6am side.

All of that so people understand why sometimes a half moon is visible in the afternoon/sunset and sometimes in the morning/sunrise, and why a full moon is visible all night long.

Well dang, Venus has zipped by us on the inside already while I weren’t paying attention, it’s already high in the sky in front of us (morning sky).

‘Course, now it’s running away it oughta get less bright as it gets further away and curves back behind the sun. Once it does it oughtta be gone for a while as it has to go all the way around the sun before we see it again in the rear view mirror (evening sky).

Stay tuned.

Were you aware that the only planet other than Earth that's mentioned in the Bible is the Jew, Peter?

It was great last night although a bit red from smoke. Clear skies today and tonight.
