Astronomy & Outer Space

Nowthen, nowthen, I hopefully will awake with the help of my bedside bleeper, at 4 am tomorrow, to view in an easterly direction, the planets, our moon keeping them company. Venus, Mars, Jupiter & Saturn all easy to see. You need an unobstructed horizon view, particularly for Venus (she's not wearing blue jeans). The difficult one is Mercury, literally near to Venus. Hope my alarm still works, I slept in this morning.
