Spot A Rare Young Crescent Moon Low In The Evening Sky Monday
• A rare, very thin crescent moon will be visible low in the west-southwestern sky shortly after sunset on Monday, January 19th.
• Clear skies and an unobstructed view are essential for spotting the faint, one-percent illuminated moon.
• Use binoculars to enhance visibility, but only after the sun has completely set to protect your eyes.
Rare moon appears after the new moon
Skywatchers are in for a treat this Monday evening, January 19th, as a rare, razor-thin waxing crescent moon makes its appearance just one day after the new moon. This celestial event offers a challenging but rewarding opportunity to observe the moon in its earliest phase.
