Tonight the evening sky gave us another nice view. The slender crescent Moon is approaching a conjunction with Venus. Then the next two nights it will move closer to Venus and at the same time Mercury and Jupiter are converging for their own Dec. 31st conjunction. All of this happens in the Southwestern sky just after sunset.
This was the diagram for tonight. I got some pictures but they just don't show up here well enough.
This is a diagram of what we can expect tomorrow night.
This is a diagram of what to look for on Wednesday Night.
Hopefully I'll have some better pictures tomorrow that I can add here.
Happy Sky watching!
