Explanation:
High above
Laguna Beach last month hung bright celestial orbs.
Visible after the California sunset were,
from left to right, the
Moon,
Saturn, and
Venus.
Tonight and for the next few days,
Venus and the Moon
will again be
visible together. Nearby stars will include
Pollux, Castor, and Procyon.
Venus now sets hours after the Sun and is so bright it might be mistaken for an
airplane or
UFO. Binoculars should enable the viewing of
craters on the Moon, and phases for Venus.
