Elongation hart for 2018 entred on the Sun. The planets shown are Mer ury (m), Venus (V), Mars (M), Jupiter (J) and Saturn (S). Interse tions
of the lines indi ate planetary onjun tions. The yellow band indi ates the rea h of ivil twilight from 55◦ N. Planets inside this region are generally
too lose to the Sun to be easily observed and so not all possible onjun tions are listed.

The design of this hart is based on those given in Antonín Rükl's book Amateur Astronomer (1985).

List of onjun tions (in e lipti longitude) for the numbered events shown on the elongation hart above. Conjun tions o urring too lose to the
Sun are not listed.

Elongation hart for 2042 entred on the Sun. The planets shown are Mer ury (m), Venus (V), Mars (M), Jupiter (J) and Saturn (S). Interse tions
of the lines indi ate planetary onjun tions. The yellow band indi ates the rea h of ivil twilight from 55◦ N. Planets inside this region are generally
too lose to the Sun to be easily observed and so not all possible onjun tions are listed.

The design of this hart is based on those given in Antonín Rükl's book Amateur Astronomer (1985).

List of onjun tions (in e lipti longitude) for the numbered events shown on the elongation hart above. Conjun tions o urring too lose to the
Sun are not listed.
