Jupiter and Saturn in the "Great Conjunction"

[Kayaker72]

It almost sounds like a movie....

Just letting you all know that this is going on:

Jupiter, Saturn will look like a double planet in rare celestial event on Dec. 21 - The Boston Globe

I might try to figure something out. I am not sure what just yet.....

Sounds out of this world!

Thanks for the head's up Brant. Curious to see what you come up with for a photo. My thought is that generally images of planets will need a very long lens (or telescope) to be able to see any details to distinguish them from stars.

I am definitely going to try to get something. I've tried shooting both with minimal luck in the past, so hoping to give it the old college try again.

Going to see what the 1200 mirror can do
