If anyone out there has a telescope, you can see both Mars and Venus tonight. The skies are clear here in New England and the stars haven't come out yet, so they're 100% visible.

Check for Venus by the moon, and Mars is about 110 degrees to the left.

Is it still visible? And from what parts of the world is it visible?

Should be good for another few days or so, until they move far enough apart that you won't see them at the same time. As I said, the best time to see would be right after dusk-- before the stars come out. I'm not wholly sure Venus is still visible.

Thanks, then. :) I'm trying to get a telescope for Xmas from the GF. Hints here and there, and the like. :D
