January 17, 2025 Planets in the Sky

Dazzling Venus and Saturn pair up in the southwestern sky this evening. Venus is a mere 60 million miles away and Saturn is almost a billion miles from us. 

With a telescope and steady skies, you may also be able to spot aqua-colored Neptune in the far recesses of the solar system - 2.8 billion miles away.
