The Crescent Moon, Venus and Jupiter

This was cool event happening that I wanted to take pictures of. I had had to use my camcorder for the pictures because of its great zoom, but thereby resulting in bad quality.

at 0:41 that is false. the sun is 93 million miles from earth, how would venus be 94 million??

Whoops! I didn't even realize. Guess I rushed or something. Thanks for letting me know.

The problem is that you still use miles to measure distances. Why don't you american retros change to the IS metric units like everyone else??

[Nidnacron]

Well, I only copied the facts. I do agree, it would be easier, but... what are you gonna do? I'm American, so I'll use the American system. :P

cool when did this happen?

[Nidnacron]

Well, I'm pretty sure that it stared Thanksgiving dusk, and the two planets moved across the moon and ended as what you see here-filmed on December 1st. You can still see the planets next to each other, but they're low on the horizon. Try looking in the west sky low on the horizon.

when venus is behind the sun and earth infront we could be 120 million miles apart... all planets distances changes as they are in orbits but the distance to the sun remains constant to our eliptical orbit as it's the centre.

You got that system from England, but England is using it no more...

what does it matter. it was wrong. the poster of this video is american, i am american. if he had converted to metric it would still be wrong.

and plus the distance between earth and venus is not constant so ....haha it actually could be true that at some point venus is 94 million miles away. ha.

oh haha didn't see the end sorry
