Today:
If you’re up at midnight tonight, you can view quite a jubilee of bright bodies in the east-northeast. This will center upon the Waning Gibbous Moon, surrounded by Capella to its top left, Aldebaran to it top right, Betelgeuse to it lower right, and the just-risen Jupiter, which appears below and to the Moon’s left.
