Alpha Librae, Zubenelgenubi (Say that five times fast!)
...the nearly First Quarter Moon, really close!
...4 degrees above opposite horizons, the biggest and smallest of planets visible at the same time, in the dawn.
....look in EARLY evening, Moon moves east as the evening gets later
.... of the Moon
...and is at its maximum elongation west of the Sun, magnitude 0.5, bright, easy to spot!
by only 2 degrees, around midnight.
Sets less than 45 minutes before sun rise, difficult to find in dawn skies the rest of the month.
