Talk:Triple conjunction

No title
Could someone with a solid background in astronomy please verify that the correct English-language terms have been used throughout? I've fixed a few I know were wrong. I'm not at all sure on "elongation" as used here, but don't know a more correct term. -- Jmabel 05:26, Aug 2, 2004 (UTC)

What About 3 Planets Together?
What is that called. I came here thinking maybe "Triple Conjunction" was it, but it's clearly not.68.84.184.83 (talk) 03:23, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

Contradiction
"At nearly every inferior conjunction there is a triple conjunction between Mercury and Venus. ... Triple conjunctions between Mercury and Venus are also possible, if Mercury and Venus are at the same time in inferior conjunction. This event is much rarer ..."

A triple conjunction at inferior conjunction is much rarer than a triple conjunction at inferior conjunction? This doesn't make sense. I'll fix it when I've worked out what it should say. Occultations (talk) 14:08, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

Disputed
"If Mars is in conjunction with the Sun, there is often a triple conjunction between Mars and Mercury or between Mars and Venus." I don't believe this. The most that can happen is a double conjunction.

"Triple conjunctions between the inferior planets Mercury and Venus and the superior planets ... take place when these objects are at the same time in conjunction to sun while Mercury or Venus are at inferior conjunction." I don't believe any of this. Only a single conjunction happens.

The subject of this article is not part of astronomy. It is part of astrology. I propose the categories be revised accordingly.
