(Before It's News)

http://lupuvictor.blogspot.com Two planets are closer to the Sun than Earth and they are Mercury and Venus. This means that we can not see them very far from the Sun in the sky. All other planets glow in the midnight sky, but these two “inner planets” (planets which have a closer distance from the Sun than the Earth) are never seen more than a few hours after sunset or before sunrise .

The inner planet, Mercury, it can be no more than 28 ° from the Sun, and Venus at about 47 ° from the Sun. These moments when Mercury and Venus reach maximum angular separation from the Sun are the most precious to see them better. When you get to this position, saying that they are the greatest elongation.
