Touch Lovecraft through astrophysics

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (9 December 2006) -- Stargazers will get a rare triple planetary treat this weekend with Jupiter, Mercury and Mars appearing to nestle together in the predawn skies. About 45 minutes before dawn on Sunday those three planets will be so close that the average person's thumb can obscure all three from view.

No doubt HPL would have drooled over this event. If you do see the sight, tell us about it. Let us know if the grand Theobaldus was present with you!!
