Saturn and Jupiter got this close was during Galileo’s lifetime.

Find a spot with an unobstructed view to the west, and the pair will appear not long after sunset.

Looking low to the west, Jupiter will be on the left and Saturn to the right at about the 4 o’clock position from Jupiter.

Thanks Sprint. It's cloudy and raining here so I doubt I will get to see anything. There was the most awesome sunset ever last night though.
