I don't want to see this alone
So join me nairalanders

Moon, Jupiter, Spica late night till dawn
Tonight – January 12, 2017 – watch for the shining light in the west after sunset. It’s starlike, but brighter than any star. It’s the brightest planet, Venus, and it reaches a milestone in its appearance in our sky tonight, known as greatest eastern elongation. In other words, Venus is as far from the sun now as it will be for this evening apparition.

At greatest elongation, Venus swings out to its greatest angular distance of 47o east of the sun, placing Venus in fine view in the western twilight sky.

Because Venus is now farthest from the setting sun on the sky’s dome, this brilliant beauty of a planet stays out for several hours after dark. You can’t miss it because Venus is the third-brightest celestial body to light up the heavens, after the sun and moon.

Whoaaaaa....its happening already
