Celestial Spectacle: Venus and Crescent Moon's Mesmerizing Dance

A crescent moon and the bright planet Venus will be visible in the eastern sky on Tuesday, October 10, appearing just 5 degrees from each other. The moon will be between the two brightest stars in the constellation Leo, Algieba and Regulus. On Wednesday and Thursday, the crescent moon will become slimmer as it approaches its new-moon phase, when it will eclipse the sun on Saturday, October 14.
