How to spot crescent moon with Venus tomorrow morning
Early Sunday morning (October 19), you can spot a slim crescent moon hanging close to bright Venus in the eastern sky—just before sunrise.
It's the last easy chance to catch these two together before Venus disappears behind the sun for a while, so set your alarm if you're curious!
When and where to see the moon and Venus
Head outside about an hour before sunrise and look toward the eastern horizon for a clear view.
The moon will be about 397507km away, while Venus shines super bright at nearly 147 million miles out—way brighter than any star.
Both are visible with just your eyes or binoculars, but they won't fit together in a single telescope view.
Venus will be out of view for a while
After this weekend, Venus will get lower each morning until it's gone from view.
You won't see it against a dark sky again until next April—so if you're up early, treat yourself to this rare sight!
