What To See In The June Sky

If you have to get-up from your slumber to pee anytime before sunrise tomorrow or Sunday morning cast your gaze to the eastern horizon.

You should be able to spot with the naked eye the thin waning crescent moon along with a very bright Venus and the Pleiades star cluster.

If you look carefully you might be able to spot the glow of earthshine on the unlit portion of the moon.  Earthshine is light reflected off the earth.

Of course, a pair of binoculars make it easier.....
