    Crescent Moon above Mars and Jupiter (pre-dawn)

    After 24 hours of additional eastward orbital motion, the crescent moon will shift above Mars and Jupiter in the eastern sky from the wee hours until sunrise, making a fine photo opportunity. The moon and Mars will be close enough to share the view in binoculars. The grouping will be bracketed above and below by the Pleiades and the bright red star Aldebaran, respectively.
