Lunar Eclipse Graces March

The night skies of this spring month offer superb sights of perplexing planets, sensational stars that concoct confounding constellations, and numerous bewildering bodies residing all over the heavens. The elusive planet Mercury and the romantic planet Venus can be tersely viewed in the western sky after dusk. They are creeping cautiously towards the western horizon with the stars that sketch the sprawling constellation Pisces (fishes). They cannot be relished after the middle of the month because of their proximity to the sun. Mercury would arrive at its maximum eastern elongation from the Sun on 08 March.
