Smiling Face by Venus Jupiter and Moon

December 1, 2008 · Kevin Paquet ·

A phenomenom has packed the whole Philippines and the whole Asian side of the Globe by a great “happy impact”, the heavens from above smiled upon us here in the east, while the United States and other western nation will see the inverted symbol.

The planets Jupiter and Venus closed in along with the earth’s only lone satellite, which we know as our moon forming a smile. It’s not that often that we see heaven smiling upon us.
The news spread first via a news site from Australia earlier and took the whole world wide web by a charge, in a positive way, well, in a positive way for the people around us here in the Philippines and the Philippine Blogoshpere side of things.

It’s a phenomenon to occur only once in 48 years and a lot of us are lucky to witness this event; especially on the first of December of this Holiday Month.

From the heavens point of view:

It must have been an awesome view from above the sky, but let’s get back to the grund and see this smiling moon phenomenon from the human point of view instead.

      No body is perfect, post edited (may take some time to refresh on the USER end because of CACHE) :)

      Thanks for your criticism which helps us to become better :p

  23. jim says:

    we saw it last night, but the moon was inverted as a spotlight shining on 2 stars – I did’t take it as a frown.

  24. Joanne says:

    We saw the moon and planets but from New York it didn’t appear as a smiling face, the moon was above the 2 planets but they were crystal clear and beautiful! Your pictures are great.

  25. jaydee says:

    hey… when will this phenomenon end.? i still couldn’t see it due to the clouds here.. will the phenomenon still be there by tomorrow??

  26. StarMars says:
