Daily cosmobite: The Moon challenge

Published by Nick Lomb on January 10, 2013 2 Comments

Early risers can see the bright planet Venus each morning low in the east. Tomorrow morning a very thin crescent Moon will be below Venus, but will not be easy to see as by the time it rises at 5:02 am AEDT the sky will be starting to brighten. Still, take the challenge to try to find and maybe even photograph it!

Good that you tried Roberto. Hopefully, other people had a look from places that were free of clouds.

I was up early this morning and did try to have a look, but there was too much cloud.
