Venus Jupiter Conjunction

On 06/10/2026 09:49 pm by Mandy Daniels | Website | Derbyshire, UK

Bright Venus is centre top, Jupiter is at the bottom, slightly to the right, just disappearing into the trees. Two of its Galillean moons can be seen as faint star like dots, Ganymede to the left, Europa and Callisto, next to each other, to the right of the planet. The separation between the two planets is about 2°, which is approximately four Moon diameters.
