This entry is part 245 of 253 in the series In the Sky This Week

A thin waxing crescent Moon appears near Venus in the western sky after sunset on Friday March 24, 2023. This is another good opportunity to search for earthshine on the Moon!

Venus will be occulted by the Moon for viewers in the Indian Ocean.

Image from Stellarium shows the sky at 8:00 PM (Eastern) from Clinton Township, Michigan. (Note: Moon is scaled 4X)
