In Australia down under we get the Smiley Face up over you get the sad face.


Smiley face will appear in tonight's sky
December 1, 2008 - 12:00AM


Is it a flying saucer? Is it a runaway intergalactic missile? No, it's just a smiley face.

On Monday night Venus, Jupiter and a three-day-old crescent Moon, will appear as a smiley face above the western horizon.

The unusual astronomical event will be close enough to see with the naked eye, any time from 9pm onwards.

But if you miss it, you will have to wait another five years before the formation appears again.

Very weird ...
