Rare Conjunction Between Jupiter And Saturn The Day After Tomorrow
Astronomer Adel Al-Saadoun said that a rare conjunction between the two planets of Jupiter and Saturn will happen the day after tomorrow, and they will approach outwardly with a difference of 0.1 degrees “angle.” This conjunction is very close to other conjugations, but this is what we see on the surface.
Al-Saadoun added to Kuwait News Agency (KUNA) today, Saturday, that the conjunction of the planets of Jupiter and Saturn occurs once every 20 years, that is, in the coming years 2040, 2060, 2080 and 2100, they will join without ever approaching the same previous approach, explaining that the last conjunction occurred in which the two planets approached and were close. Very it was in the years 1226 and 1623.
He mentioned that Jupiter revolves around the Earth every 12 Earth years, meaning that one year equals 12 Earth years, and Saturn has 29 Earth years, and on December 21, they will be coupled and will look shiny as if they are one planet in a breathtaking view.
In comparison with the brightest stars in the sky, he reported that the brightest star in the sky is Sirius, and its luminosity is -1.46 (the negative number is brighter than the positive number. “
He pointed out that if Jupiter approaches the Earth, its brightness reaches -2.94, while Saturn is now +1.43, the sun is at -27, and the moon -6.12, and Venus is the brightest body in the sky after the sun and moon, and its brightness is -4.6.
and he indicated that this conjunction is undoubtedly a rare event for these two planets to approach this degree, but astronomically this conjunction has no scientific value, it is only to enjoy the rare scene no more.
