Explanation:
This week's ongoing conjunction
of Venus and Jupiter
may have whetted your appetite for skygazing.
Tonight is the main course though.
On November 28, a young
crescent Moon will join them posing
next to the two bright planets above the western horizon at twilight.
Much like tonight's
visual
feast, this night skyscape shows
a young lunar crescent and brilliant Venus in the western evening
twilight on October 29.
The celestial beacons are setting over distant mountains and the
Minya monastery,
Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan,
China, planet Earth.
Then Mercury, not Jupiter, was a celestial companion to Venus and the Moon.
The fleeting innermost planet is just visible here in the bright
twilight,
below and left of Venus and near the center of the frame.
Tomorrow, November 29, the crescent Moon will also help you
spot planet
Saturn
for desert.
