The crescent moon appears in the southwestern sky tonight and through the coming weekend. Tomorrow night, the moon appears right under the red planet Mars, now moving into the zodiacal constellation Leo. You can follow the moon into the coming week. From Mars, the moon moves east towards the bright star Regulus, the brightest star in the constellation. The Moon and Regulus are almost close to touch on Sunday night.
Say Goodbye to Jupiter
The brightest planet in the evening sky is now so low in the western sky, to be in the light of twilight. It won't be long, but Jupiter will shift sides, first getting too close to the Sun to be seen. Then shifting to a morning planet in the coming summer. Jupiter will be joining all of the morning planets: Venus and Saturn.
