Jupiter and Mercury at Sunset
Over the past week when I went out at sunset, since its much later occurring now and H.W. really doesn't get in the way, I always saw two stars before the sun's light completely faded. My guess was that one of them was Jupiter, but I did not know what the other was. Well APOD fixed that for me, releasing this great photo of the sunset and explaining how the two stars are actually Jupiter and Mercury.
