Avivah, one of the astronomers from the Langit Selatan community in Bandung, admitted that she had been observing this celestial phenomenon since April 7, 2022, when the planets Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, and Venus seemed to be closely observed from Earth.
The observation location is in front of the house. Likewise on Saturday morning, April 23, 2022. “Cute to take pictures,” said Avivah quoted from Tempo.coSunday (24/4/2022).
According to him, on Monday, April 25, 2022, the position of the moon is close to Saturn. Then in the following days, the moon seemed to have visited the other three planets. On April 26, the moon’s position is close to Mars, then next to Venus this Thursday morning, April 27.
In April, the best observation time can be from 03.30 until before sunrise as long as the weather is sunny. (ikh)
