Waning Crescent Moon Near Beehive Cluster

Posted on by

   Wednesday morning, August 28th, before the Sun rises local time look for the very thin 27-day old waning crescent Moon to be ‘on top’ of the open star cluster the Beehive Cluster, M-44. This should prove to be a great sight either with binoculars or telescope.
