"Don't Look Now, But There's A UFO In Your Morning Coffee"

Scheduled air date: 1998 Jan 19-25

As a “morning star” this week, Venus appears higher with each morning, while Mercury descends toward the rising sun. On January 26th, the thin crescent Moon will form a triangle with these two planets.
(Shown about half an hour before sunrise each morning; star background is correct for mid-week.)
