Aye, classical case of wrong subject. Try:
See the Planet between Saturn and Neptune with Binoculars.

Going off on a tangent and actually commenting on the real event for a moment (*Gasp!*), it actually surprises me that we'll even be able to see that planet with binoculars since it's one of the two farthest away (and sometimes the farthest since it's orbit crosses Neptune's).
I recall seeing Saturn once around 2001 I believe when it's orbit was closest to Earth's. Very weird because of the rings!

 Should be posted in the "Problem Reports" forum if you ask me.

It looks like the viewing of Uranus already took place at the crack of dawn during a full moon........(per the article). Hope you didn't miss it......

I stayed up until 3:30am and got the best view of an eclipse that I'd ever seen (ok, about 1/2 an eclipse by that time). Perfect conditions outside. I woke up at 5:10am and decided to take a peek since the eclipse should have been full by then, but the clouds had rolled in and now we're all socked in with fog (remember I live next to the Columbia River!). Oh well, glad I saw it when I did!
(I even think I saw Uranus, but I'm not positive.)
