Input: Stargazers around the world were treated to an usual sight last night, when Venus and Jupiter appeared close together in the sky. The planets, which are hundreds of millions of miles from each other, seemed to be planetary neighbours and there is a chance that they may appear to merge tonight and on Wednesday night. The event will be the closest conjunction of the two planets until August next year. Sky & Telescope Contributing Editor Fred Schaaf said the current string of Venus-Jupiter conjunctions closely resembles a similar series between the years 3 and 2 B.C. 'As has been the case in 2014–15, the first two conjunctions back then were extremely close, the last one separated by about 1°, all three occurred not far from Regulus, and all were similarly high up in the sky.'People in the UK and US can spot Venus and Jupiter together tonightPlanets appeared unusually close together last nightFrom the UK they will be visible above the western horizon after 10.30pmIn the US they will be visible in the same direction after sunset
