Crescent Moon nears Antares (pre-dawn)
Early risers on Friday morning, February 21 can look in the southeastern sky
to see the pretty sight of the waning crescent moon shining close to Antares. The duo will be cozy enough to share the view in binoculars (orange circle). That luminous reddish star located 550 light-years from our sun marks the
heart of Scorpius. Observers located on Easter Island and southern South America can watch the moon occult Antares with unaided eyes, binoculars, and telescopes. Use an app like Starry Night to look up the timings where you
live.
