Correction to February Calendar

[drclay]

From our alert ASO contributor in Malaysia

Hi Dr. Clay,

I am refering to your "february events" article at
http://www.arksky.org/ . I think you got the conjunction dates mixed up
between Uranus and Neptune. I believe it should be 25th Feb for Uranus
and 3rd Feb for Neptune.

Kind regards

Thank you for this "heads-up!"  The information is juxtaposed on the calendar and Shah is absolutely correct; the proper information should read:

Uranus -  This distant planet is in conjunction with the sun on February 25 is not viewable in February 2005 - in CAPRICORNUS.
Neptune - Like Uranus, this distant planet is in solar conjunction on February 3 nd is not viewable in February 2005 - in CAPRICORNUS.

So...for those of you who want to "not see" Uranus and Neptune" during their conjunctions, at least you know when to look!

We appreciate corrections and suggestions always!
