The moon and Venus always make a pretty combination. Tomorrow night, January 26, presents a great opportunity to see the two brightest evening objects come together in our western sky. Look to the west 45 minutes after sunset for their pairing. The moon will be sporting Earthshine, the back reflected sunlight off the nearly full Earth. This makes the lunar crescent appear dimly full. Use binoculars for a more magical effect!
Such is the view from Earth...
