Today:
Early risers tomorrow will find an even thinner Crescent Moon joining Venus, well to the left of the planetary beacon, but also just left of the returning collection of stars known as the Seven Sisters. They will be quite low at 3:45 AM, just as the first hints of dawn blush in the east, visible until 4 o’clock, or shortly after, when the stars fade in the brightening twilight.
