Moon and Saturn Conjunction in Pre-Dawn Sky Tonight

The moon and Saturn will have a conjunction on March 19, with the two celestial bodies sharing the same right ascension. The best time to view the conjunction will be around 6:30 a.m. local time, and skywatchers will need an unobstructed horizon and a clear sky to make out the pair in the morning twilight. The conjunction will be visible from New York City at around 6:02 a.m. EDT, just after the moon and Saturn have risen over the horizon. Skywatchers could spot the conjunction with binoculars.
