Morning Sky Alert for Feb 1st.



From Spaceweather.com
Set your alarm for dawn. On Friday morning, February 1st, Venus and Jupiter converge in the southeastern sky less than 1 degree apart. It's a spectacular view worth waking up early to see: sky map.
When I got up this morning I saw this and was like "wow, those are cool." Check it out.
