I had another peep this morning. The Moon made an interesting sight with its thin crescent and abundant earthshine being apparent even though the nearby sky was quite pinkish.

The Moon was below Jupiter (I was expecting it to still be above) and I was thrilled, as I rarely see it in the morning sky when it is less than 35 hours before New Moon.

I also noticed relevant movement in the above trio of planets. This will continue and on the 5th and 6th of April; Mars and Saturn will be only half a degree apart. Worth watching!
