Three planets currently grace the dawn skies, and at the end of the month the Moon joins the scene. As shown on the chart above, the waning crescent Moon shines close to orange Mars before dawn on the 27th. A day later the Moon passes by Venus. On Wednesday morning, use Venus and the Moon to guide your way to Mercury.
By using our
