Details:
Mercury Mars Conjunction - Noctilucent Clouds faintly on West horizon over the city of Portland at 10:39 PM PDT June 18th 2019.
I had only intended to go up to Mount Tabor to allow the public to see the Mercury and Mars conjunction through my Celestron telescope and Sony NexStar 5i, yet not until I processed photos later at home, did I discover that there was a possible weak display of Noctilucent Clouds again tonight, since the grand display we had a week ago on June 9th 2019.
Bright Mercury is just above the dimmer Mars, just above the horizon at lower right, with the bright stars of Gemini, Castor and Pollux in the upper right.
