We got to see Venus, Mars & Saturn; now it's time for Mercury.
Tomorrow morning (October 1) 45 minutes before sunrise, look due east in a place that is unobstructed with houses, trees, etc since the planet will be low on the horizon. Due east will be the brightest spot on the horizon. Venus, the brightest light, will be to the upper right of where the sun will rise. Mercury will be below and slightly to the left - about 10 degrees above the horizon. Everyone in the USA with a clear view should be able to see Mercury. Binoculars not necessary, but helpful as Mercury is much dimmer than Venus.
Don't forget, you need to look 45 minutes before sunrise or the sky will be too bright to see Mercury.
The Messenger Spacecraft is out there orbiting Mercury also. Of course we won't be able to see it, but it's there.
This isn't as exciting as meteors, but we happen to be studying Mercury this week so a view of it is a must.
