Tonight and tomorrow you have an opportunity to observe some stuff in the night sky without having to stay up late or drag your sleepy butt out of bed in the early morning hours.
beginning the evening and continuing on Tuesday the thin waxing crescent moon will hang in the evening sky close to the horizon after the sun sets. The bright red star Antares will be very near the moon.
If you're lucky you might be able to view the constellation Scorpius in the twilight. And possibly the elusive glow of earthshine. Earthshine is the dim glow of reflected light from earth shining on the dark side of the moon.
