Spectacular Night Sky Show

In early November, the waxing crescent moon sweeps past Venus and Saturn, then goes on to pass Mars.

In the next few evenings, look for the moon and the planets Venus and Saturn in the sky some 45 minutes (or less) after sunset. Look for the moon to partner up with Mars on November 5 and 6.
