Venus and Jupiter are the 2 brightest planets visible from Earth. And they’ve been easy to spot in the sunset direction, during evening twilight. Dazzling Venus and bold Jupiter have crept closer together all month, with Venus shining as the brightest world. Around the evenings of February 21 and 22, you’ll see an even more spectacular scene in the evening twilight sky, as the young moon joins the show. Read about the moon, Venus, and Jupiter here.
