Silent Night~Crescent Moon and Venus

Bodhi, the neighborhood cat is looking west in preparation for Monday evening's sky event. I'm letting you know so you'll be ready to also look west after sunset but before moonset at 7:27 PST on Monday, 12/26/11. We should be able to see the crescent moon just to the right of brightly shining Venus.




There are two great sites that help me with all things sky. One is Earth Sky at http://earthsky.org/ 
The other one is Complete Sun and Moon Data for One Day at http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/RS_OneDay.php.

Happy Viewing
With Heart
