The planet Venus and Earth's moon will have an eye-popping close encounter
on Tuesday, May 14th. Finding the pair is easy: simply face west after
sunset. The slender crescent moon will lie less than two degrees (about
the width of your index finger held at arm's length) from brilliant Venus.
A bonus: Look at the moon's dark terrain. Sunlight reflected from our own
planet makes it glow. A crescent moon with "Earthshine" is one of the
loveliest sights in the heavens. Visit spaceweather.com for photos and a
finder chart.
