Lots to enjoy just after sunset tonight: Mercury is approaching maximum eastern extension: on March 8th it will be as high as it ever can be. With a telescope or binoculars Venus shows a crescent, supposedly the reason that Astarte was depicted with a crescent headdress. Meanwhile, further east, the Moon is in between Jupiter and the Pleiades - hard to photograph, but you get the picture!
