Crescent Moon and Spica (after sunset)
After 24 hours of orbital motion, the waxing crescent moon will hop east to shine less than a palm's width to the left (or 5.5 degrees to the celestial southeast) of Virgo's brightest star Spica with reddish Mars shining off to their right for about an hour after sunset on Wednesday, August 27. After the sun has completely set, use binoculars to scan for the trio just above the western horizon.
