Jupiter and Venus together

Has anyone heard about the planets Jupiter and Venus coming close together the other night, or atleast they were supposed to look like they were close together when actually they were still pretty far apart?

Yup. But it was cloudy here. From our perspective on Earth, they looked close together in the sky, but in reality, remained really really really REALLY far apart in space. Would have been neat to see.
