Does anyone have a calendar (or a link to one) with such useful things as Major & Minor moonrisings, that thing Venus does peeking on the horizon on winter solstice etc.

I wouldn't want to miss the opportunity to see some of the more unusual celestial happenings, not now I've read Aubrey Burls big stone circle book anyhow..

It would be nice to see a moon rising between the pink panther's ears (or a hippo's as Burl suggests)

Just had a thought.....try emailing Patrick Moore at "the Sky at Night". He might have seen several in his time.
