Three planets are easy to spot in the night sky, looking from west to east. They are Venus, Jupiter and Saturn.

Venus is the easiest to spot, high in the western sky soon after sunset. The planet will spend many hours in the western sky, setting late in the night. By late June, and for the rest of the summer, Venus will lose its height. Though gradual at first, Venus is poised to start appearing lower and lower in the western sky in the summer. The planet will jump into the morning sky in autumn.
