Venus–Jupiter conjunction, 7 February 2032

Venus and Jupiter come closest together in the sky on 7 February 2032 around 01:43 UTC, at an apparent separation of 0.3° (about 0.7 Moon diameters). They stand at least 29° from the Sun, so they are not lost in its glare.

Visibility from Hungary (calculated for Budapest): the best moment to observe is 7 February 2032, 06:28 CET: the target stands 6° high in the south-east, in twilight, the sky is not fully dark yet. The calculation is for Budapest; elsewhere in the country rise and set times differ by only a few minutes.

In the page's interactive 3D model the time machine jumps to this moment (7 February 2032) and the camera takes the view that fits the event: a sky view from the visitor's city or Budapest. You can freely scrub time forwards and backwards.

Planet positions come from our own approximate calculation (about 0.1-1° accuracy, times within a few hours).
