Phew, the lunar occultation of Venus is not a body problem. We are all safe.

The young crescent moon occulted Mercury today...as seen from the mountains of southern New Mexico.
First photo is a telephoto shot of the moon only a minute after it uncovered our innermost planet. This was taken in bright twilight as a wind and dust storm was easing up.
Second photo is a wider angle shot ten minutes later that includes Venus in the bottom third of the frame. The evening twilight sky colors are pallid because of the dust storm clouds billowing a mile below me on the floor of the Tularosa basin.

Heute Abend lohnt sich ein Blick zum Mond. Nach Sonnenuntergang kann man schön die Annäherung des Mondes an den offenen Sternhaufen der Plejaden (M45) beobachten.
Ab ca. 22:15 (anhängig vom Beobachtungsort) werden dann einige hellere Sterne auch bedeckt, was teilweise 1 Stunde dauert.
