Jupiter, Venus Together This Evening

Sky watchers get a treat this evening: Venus and Jupiter will appear to be practically on top of each other. The two planets will be separated in the sky by just one-third of a degree, which means you'll be able to cover them both with your pinky finger, notes NASA. Together, they will look like "tight, brilliant double star in the evening sky," writes Sky & Telescope. And NPR adds that it won't be complicated to see the sight. It doesn't even have to be dark: "Just look to the west around sunset."
