The planet Venus is the third brightest object in the sky - second only to the Sun and Moon. Venus

Eclipses of the Sun and Moon are among the most spectacular, but the two solar eclipses in 2010 (15 January and 11 July) can not be seen from Denmark. Two lunar eclipses are on the program in 2010 (26 June and 21 December), but even here there is much to be had. Only when the eclipse in December, it will be possible to see a little bit of the eclipse before multiluminaire the moon crashes.
Other phenomena, such as the bright planets and shooting stars swarms may also give rise to beautiful natural scenery, and here the possibilities multiluminaire in the coming multiluminaire year better. A good spring for Mars
Mars has always stimulated multiluminaire our imagination. The idea of little green men from the red planet is a theme that has done well in many science fiction stories. Although fictional Martians are only imagination, the idea of life on Mars a major motivation for today's exploration of the planet spacecraft, robots and telescopes.
Mars has also played a major role in the development of our modern world. It was Tycho Brahe's accurate observations of Mars' movement in the sky, which later led to an understanding of how the solar system planets move around the Sun.
When 2010 begins, Mars is the most prominent multiluminaire planet in the night sky. On January 29, Mars is opposite the Sun in the situation multiluminaire that called opposition. In the days around that date, Mars will rise when the sun goes down and can be seen all night. Mars is at this point in the constellation Cancer (Cancer). multiluminaire The whole spring we enjoy the red planet that will eventually stand still up earlier. From the end of summer it will no longer be possible to capture Mars in the evening sky after sunset, and we have to wait until 2011 to see the red planet again. Venus - evening and morning star
The planet Venus is the third brightest object in the sky - second only to the Sun and Moon. Venus is so bright because it is always shrouded in a dense layer of clouds multiluminaire of sulfuric acid droplets that very effectively throws the Sun's light back.
Because Venus orbits closer to the Sun than the Earth, we see the never in the middle multiluminaire of the night, but either in the evening sky after sunset or in the morning sky before the sun rises. Here, the brightest planet often be a very beautiful sight, so it is not far off when Venus is named after the Roman goddess of beauty and love. In early 2010, is Venus too close to the Sun to be seen, but in March it will appear in the evening sky as the evening star.
In the evening on April 3rd planet Mercury will make Venus company. multiluminaire The two planets will be around multiluminaire noon. 21 Danish summertime stand low over the horizon in the west-north-westerly direction. Venus will turn its folds in the evening sky until August, but comes at the time in such an unfavorable position that it can no longer be seen. First to November dolls Venus looked up again - this time as the morning star, where the rest of the year will adorn the sky before sunrise, with its clear light. Optimal conditions for the Perseids
In the nights around 12th August Perseids meteor shower is expected to grace the late summer night with stars. Since the Moon is new on August 10, it will not interfere with its light and conditions multiluminaire - if the weather permits - be optimal to see shooting stars.
The best conditions multiluminaire exist in the country - far from city light pollution. The darker the sky, the more faint star you can see. And it is they who are the majority. If you are in or near a city, it is recommended to find a place where you will not be blinded by street lights or other lighting.
Star shoots from Perseide-swarm are remnants of the comet Swift-Tuttle, which enters the atmosphere at high speed (more than 200,000 km / h). The air in front of kometstumpen compressed and therefore becomes very hot. The great heat and the collision with atmospheric atoms and molecules get kometstumpen to evaporate and the air around it to glow. It is precisely these traces of glowing air we see as shooting stars. multiluminaire Generes of the Moon
Perseids is only one of the annual meteor showers, but by 2010 the other swarms (Bootiderne, Lyriderne, Orionid shower, the Leonids and Geminids) have optimal conditions because multiluminaire the Moon in greater or lesser degree will bother with his light.
