Planetary triangle August 20

Thanks ElysianWort for the nice heads up and amazing app.

Never mind Tom, it brightens his day and allows him to get his smug on discovering something is misspelled or incorrect by other Punawebbers here. If you notice, he mostly does this late in the evening when everyone else is sleeping.

Britishers are abysmal at social interaction with other groups outside of they own.

Thanks Eric and Tom for the correct info. []
It was super clear in Hilo tonight and I did get to see mercury and jupiter just above mauna kea. The Mars Saturn Scorpius triangle was absolutely beautiful.

"The Mars Saturn Scorpius triangle was absolutely beautiful."

Yes, while watching for the ISS the other night I was asked which constellation those bright objects were in, and couldn't figure it at first, then realised it was Saturn and Mars making Scorpius look very different! It was beautiful, especially when the ISS passed nearby.
