If you have a clear sky look up
Tonight: A Twilight Encounter You Can’t Miss
February 3, 2026 – The Moon Meets Mercury in the Evening Sky
As the Sun sets tonight, look to the western horizon for a rare and beautiful conjunction. Mercury, the innermost planet, will shine bright in the fading twilight unusually easy to see with the naked eye.
Hovering nearby, the crescent Moon adds its gentle glow to the scene, creating a perfect pairing of Earth’s closest neighbor and the elusive, fast-moving planet.
No telescope needed. Just step outside, find a clear view to the west, and let the cosmos reveal a subtle moment of wonder.
Catch it before it fades into the night.
