A stunning celestial event took place on Friday as Venus appeared prominently beside a crescent Moon, captivating skywatchers across regions like India, UK, US, Turkey, and China. The bright planet, often referred to as the Morning or Evening Star, was visible to the naked eye, especially in areas with clear skies and minimal light pollution. As Earth’s nearest planetary neighbour, Venus shines brightly due to its position between the Earth and the Sun. While it regularly appears near the Sun, its alignment with the Moon is a rare spectacle, making this sighting a truly remarkable occurrence for astronomers and stargazers alike.
