Question
Hi,

Where can I find a 'space' map about the current position of the planets?

Thank you

Answer
Hi Noel

The best one is at Sky and Telescope's website.  They are a great publication, and the have a feature about the sky each month.  And this is reproduced and updated for the website.

I am sorry that I can't send you a link--i am speaking at a conference and only have my Blackberry--but if you do a web search for Sky & Telescope, you easily find it--and you will then spend hours exploring the site!

Astronomy and telescope making. Have made at least seven telescopes, both refractors and reflectors, and have spent 30 years looking at the nighttime sky.
