Crescent Moon Covers Mars (evening)

In the western sky on Sunday evening, June 29 in the Americas, the waxing crescent moon will shine very close to the bright, reddish dot of Mars, allowing them to share the view in binoculars and backyard telescopes. In mid- evening, observers in a region of the Pacific Ocean southwest of Central America and extending to western Ecuador can watch the moon occult Mars. Use
an app like Starry Night or SkySafari to look up the start and end times for your location.
