The Christmas season is an exciting time for a lot of reasons, including some very cool astronomical events.
‘The Backyard Astronomer’ Gary Boyle says a lot of people might be noticing a couple of planets which are visible to the naked eye right now.
On December 21st, ‘The Great Conjunction’ will take place when Jupiter and Saturn get very close from our perspective.
Boyle says this type of occurrence happens once every 390 years or so.
