Saskatchewan is known as the land of the living skies, and there will be a very interesting sight up there early Sunday morning.
Venus and Jupiter will appear to be very close together. It’s called a conjunction.
It’s a phenomenon that excites Chris Martin, a Saskatoon astronomy enthusiast.
He woke up at around 4 a.m. Saturday to try and get a glimpse of it.
“But the haze was so heavy this morning, you couldn’t see through that. I love it when the weather office says ‘partly cloudy.’ Yeah, sure guys,” he chuckled.
Still, he has another chance Sunday morning.
“About 45 minutes before sunrise (is the best time) … so, at around 5 a.m., 5:15 a.m., you’ll notice it low in the east. It’s really cool,” he explained.
