Saturn can be seen close to the Moon on the evening of the 24th! The pair will become visible from around 21:40 in the South, they can be seen until they set at around 02:40 in the South West. The closest approach is at 06:53 on the morning of the 25th however the pair won’t be visible. Look to the left and you can also see Mars shining brightly!
