SKYWATCHING!
It's not just families that are getting together this Thanksgiving week. The three brightest objects in the night sky — Venus, Jupiter and a crescent moon — will crowd around each other for an unusual group shot.
If you have a telescope this should be about the easiest time you'll ever have seeing three things to see and show your relatives before you all freeze your asses off.
The next time all three will be so close in the sky will be November 2052.
If you want to look at another great sky object tomorrow morning rather than shop, Saturn will be in the sky ... the crown jewel of amateur skywatching. There are few people that don't go "Wow" the first time they see Saturn in a telescope.
