Slim Moon above Mercury (after sunset)
As the sky is darkening after sunset on Sunday, July 7, the very pretty waxing crescent moon will pose low in the west-northwestern sky with the dot of Mercury positioned a generous thumb's width below (or 2.5 degrees to the celestial southwest) of the moon - easily close enough for them to share the view in binoculars. Avoid turning optical aids toward the western horizon
until the sun has fully set.
