Inspiring awe – from the heavens to the oceans
Look into the night sky in the coming days and Jupiter and Saturn will
appear closer (0.1 degree on 21st December) than they’ve been since
the early 17th century, according to the astronomer Stuart Clark. He
tells Tom Sutcliffe it’s a beautiful great conjunction that happens
once every 20 years, but this year is especially rare. In his book,
Beneath the Night, Clark explores how the stars have shaped the
history of humankind, inspiring awe and fascination throughout the
centuries.
