The Moon and Venus

A brilliant planet and a thin crescent Moon will pair up in the dawn tomorrow morning, September 12th. Venus will be a bit under 4° from the Moon. The planet will make a nice pair with a 14% illuminated Moon. Look for the pair to rise about 03:00HST and be over 40%deg; above the horizon at sunrise.
