Oops, I forgot to mention that my location is 37deg 51m S, 145deg 04m E. (Melbourne, Australia)
I'll leave it as an exercise for the group to track the moon for that day & see if you can view the occultation from your location. Thanks go to Perry Vlahos, Astronomical Society of Victoria Inc., for the occultation alert. --Geoff --- In [email protected], "Geoff Dudley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Nov. 10 2004 the moon will occult Venus in the daytime as seen > from my location.
