Conjunction of Moon, Venus, and Jupiter, November 30 - December 1, 2008

I'm feeling tired and uninspired right now. Going to head to bed early.

So I was wondering what I could write about that wouldn't take too much out of me, and I remembered that there's a cool conjunction of the Moon, Venus, and Jupiter coming up November 30 and December 1.

Rather than try to summarize what's going to happen, I'll just point you towards some sites that talk about it in detail. Plus I've posted a nifty animation that I found on one of the sites. Play through it to get an idea of what you'll see where and when.
