the venus and jupiter conjunction is lighting up the night sky right now - solar street lighting system
Following yesterday's dramatic "blood moon" Eclipse, another stunning astronomical event took place in the night sky this morning.
Venus and Jupiter have reached their union-meaning they can be seen together in the night sky.
The combination of the two planets is particularly amazing as they are the third and fourth bright objects in the sky after the sun and moon.
They are also far from the sun, which means that their light will not be overwhelmed by the strong light of the stars.
Nasa wrote: "The Union is a celestial event in which two planets or one planet are tightly combined with the moon or one planet and one star in the night sky.
There is no real astronomical value for the connectives, but they look good.
Venus will look brighter than Jupiter, though it is much smaller.
Nasa continues, this is only because Venus is closer to Earth.
Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, is actually 11 times bigger than Venus, but when it looks at the sky it gets darker because it's far from our planet.
A few hours before dawn, this combination will be the most obvious.
If you are lucky enough to get up in the early hours of the morning, you will now be able to see Venus and Jupiter.
