A chance to see Mercury this week in the Western Sky!

Tuesday, Feb. 28
In early twilight, use binoculars to look very low in the west for the very thin crescent Moon near Mercury, as shown here. The Moon will be only about 23 hours old as seen from the US East Coast, and 26 hours old when twilight arrives on the West Coast.
