The media inform us that the next two weeks is a 'chance in a life time' to see six planets lined up in the sky. Did anyone get to see them last night? Is this a whole world experience eg could Copago see it in Australia?

Well, Moonrockie, I'll be getting out the telescope tonight .. although sometimes it's just easier to use binoculars!

Which way do we look for this, anyone know?
