Mars can be seen close to the Moon on the evening of the 27th! The pair will become visible from around 22:00 in the South East, they can be seen until they set at around 03:30 in the South West. The closest approach is at 23:04 on the evening of the 27th. Look to the right and you will see Saturn shining brightly!
