See planet Mercury at your local sunset

The innermost planet of our solar system, Mercury, is now in a perfect place to see in the twilight of the evening. See it easily in your local night sky during the middle of March 2011.
On the evening of March 15, you'll see a bright star-like point in the western sky: that's the planet Jupiter. Right above Jupiter and to its right will be a dimmer looking point, the planet Mercury!
The two planets are the brightest objects in the night sky, so they should be pretty obvious to the naked eye.
As the nights go forward you'll see the two planets separate slightly. Over these nights, Jupiter and Mercury will be about 5 degrees apart.
Astronomers are predicting that March 17 and 18, 2011, will be the best times to see Mercury, when it is highest in the night sky and well above Jupiter.
Check out the NASA science webpage 'See Mercury at Sunset' for more on the observation of Mercury in March 2011.
