It was Uranus and Neptune but is has been quite a few years, decades even? sig On Tue, Mar 13, 2012 at 2:03 PM, <erikhansen@thebluezone.net> wrote:

Perhaps Saturn and Uranus?
Hi Dave, no it was Uranus and Neptune and I obviously remembered the time
frame incorrectly. It's mostly a blur that far back... :-( In my previous lifetime, I wasn't an astronomer, I was a galley slave. Oh, wait, that's THIS lifetime.
I always forget about the planetarium program Kim gave me. Once I get home from work, I tend to avoid the computer.
Thanks!

Unless you're talking about your 1821 observing experiences from your previous lifetime, the last time Uranus and Neptune were even close enough to see in same binocular field-of-view was back in 1993 in Capricornus. Another pairing recollection perhaps? Jupiter and Saturn? _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy
