Moon near Mercury and Venus on Christmas Eve
On December 24, 2022, Venus, Mercury and the very thin crescent moon that is about to set form a triangle. The moon is only 1.1 days old and 1.4% illuminated. It took me ages to find this super-slim crescent moon in the orange twilight! The crescent moon in binoculars is very, very beautiful!
