The globe will witness the next Tuesday and Wednesday, May 23 and 24, Quadruple conjunction of the moon And Venus, Mars and Pollux in a wonderful scene seen with the naked eye.
Dr. Ashraf Tadros, professor of astronomy at the National Institute for Astronomical Research, indicated that the moon is associated with Venus (the brightest planet of the solar system), Mars (the red planet) and the star Pollux in Gemini / the twins, where we see them with the naked eye in the sky towards the west following sunset. Directly and entering the night, as Pollux mediates the distance between Venus and Mars, and the moon is closest to Venus on the 23rd, then closest to Mars on the 24th, and the scene begins at sunset following approximately eleven in the evening.
The professor of astronomy at the National Institute for Astronomical Research added that the connection between celestial bodies and human destiny is not from astronomy at all, but rather from matters of astrology, and astrology is not a science, but rather a craft such as reading palms and cups, striking farewells, opening cards, etc., all of which are presumptive matters related to divination and the occult. .
Tadros stressed that the link between the conditions of the planets and their associations with the occurrence of earthquakes does not have a sound scientific basis, and if that were the case, it would have been noticed by astronomers hundreds of years ago, explaining that the night astronomical phenomena do not have any harm to human health or daily activity on Earth, except that Daytime phenomena related to the sun may be dangerous because looking at the sun with the naked eye generally harms the eye a lot, indicating that astronomical phenomena are fun to watch and are loved by amateurs and those interested in following and photographing them, provided the weather is clear and the sky is free of clouds, dust and water vapor.
