Get out just after sunset tonight (Feb 23rd) to see a slim crescent Moon, Venus and Jupiter all in a nice line. Tomorrow night the Moon will be right next to Venus… and then on Saturday night it will be right beside Jupiter. Nice!!

You may be able to observe the planet Mercury very close to the slim crescent moon.
