AND STRAIGHT ON ‘TIL MORNING After wandering about as far from the Sun on the sky as Venus can get, the brilliant evening star crossed paths with the Pleiades star cluster, also known as the Seven Sisters, earlier this week. The beautiful conjunction was enjoyed by skygazers around the world; this photo was taken April 2 and shows the view from Portal, Arizona.
