    Young Moon Joins Jupiter (after sunset)

    If your view of the northwestern horizon is unobstructed and free of clouds after sunset on Tuesday, May 27, watch for the slim crescent of the young moon positioned less than 10 degrees to the lower right (or celestial northwest) of the bright planet Jupiter. The moon will set about an hour after the sun. Once the sun has fully disappeared from view, you can safely use binoculars to search the sky to Jupiter's lower right. On the following evening, the
    slightly fuller moon will climb to shine above Jupiter, making a lovely photo opportunity.
