Other point: I noticed that striking configuration of the moon and the star last night as well -- anyone know what star it is?

Get a pair of binos on Venus and you'll clearly see its crescent shape. It's the same size as the earth, you know. Jupiter is 10 times wider (and alot further away).
There's a rare transit of Venus in June:

Easy to watch by projecting the image through binos on to a card. You'll have to get up early, though (in the UK). Saw the last one in 2004, there won't be another for over a century.Last edited by Brotherton Lad; 27-03-2012 at 10:17.
It was like that when I got here.

Thanks for the heads-up on the "star." If it's visible tonight, I'll know what I'm looking at!
