Photo of the night: The crescent moon is accompanied by planets Venus, bottom, and Jupiter, right, as evening sky clouds stream by the trio in this 15-second time exposure made from Stedman, N.C. Monday night, Dec. 1, 2008 using a telephoto lens. The striking grouping was widely observed from the eastern US. Earlier in the day observers in England saw the moon completely cover Venus.

If you weren't able to see it in your area because of cloud cover or the kids missed it, it was spectacular! When I first saw this in the sky last night I thought maybe aliens had finally come to visit or something. Luckily, I was able to rest easy when I found out those were just planets showing so bright and beautifully!
Don't miss the next big celestial event. SkyAndTelescope.com has a listing of other things to look at with the sky this week HERE.
