Explanation:
It was visible around the world.
The sunset conjunction of Jupiter and Venus in 2012 was visible almost
no matter where you lived on Earth.
Anyone on the planet with a clear western horizon at sunset could see them.
Pictured here in 2012, a creative photographer traveled
away from the town lights of
Szubin,
Poland to image
a near closest approach of the
two planets.
The bright planets were then separated only by
three degrees and his daughter struck a
humorous pose.
A faint red sunset still glowed in the background.
Jupiter and Venus are
together again this month after sunset,
passing within a degree of each other about a week ago.
