Thanks to Fox17 News in Nashville for advance notice of this remarkable event:
'Another unique aspect of today's moon is it will make a close pass by Uranus. NASA
states the planet and the sun will appear to be on exact opposite sides
of the sky, making it the brightest and easiest planet to observe
tonight. NASA says due to the close pass, some may experience glare
issues when trying to get a good look at Uranus.'
