I noticed that the planets Jupiter and Saturn are now visible but only from the upper windows of the Jodrell Plank Observatory Visitor Centre. I managed to take a handheld image of the pair of planets this week when they skimmed the roof tops at midnight. Later in the week I went to nearby Corton Cliffs and captured some images of Jupiter and Saturn as they became visible close to the horizon and over the North Sea." - Kurt Thrust acting CEO and current Director of the Jodrell Plank Observatory.
