Venus dances with the Moon

On December 5th and 6th assuming it is nice and clear you will be able to see the planet Venus which will appear as a very bright white dot low in the sky in the west just after sunset with a crescent moon above it. Venus is sometimes called the ‘Evening Star’

Venus can be seen even closer to the Moon on the 4th but it will be lower down and there will be less of the crescent of the Moon to be seen.
