Jupiter can be seen close to the Moon on the evening of the 11th! The pair will become visible from around 18:40 in the South West, they can be seen until they set at around 19:00. A very short window to view them. The closest approach is at 22:21 on the 11th however the pair won’t be visible.
The image shows their location at 18:40 on the 11th
