My brother, Kim, posted these photos tonight of the great Jupiter/Saturn conjunction, first time in 400 years this has happened

 Kim writes: "Tonight it was clear enough to photograph the Jupiter and Saturn conjunction. All the years I have been an amateur astronomer I've never seen these two so close together. You can still see them in the southwest just after sundown. The first photo is exposed to see Saturn. The second shows Jupiter's four largest moons. Jupiter as 79 and Saturn has 82."
