Catch this month’s planetary hangout 🤝

On March 8, Venus and Saturn will form a conjunction, seeming close together in the sky despite being almost a billion miles apart in space. These two planets will appear separated by roughly one degree in the sky, or about the width of one finger held at arm’s length.

To see this pairing, go outdoors just after sunset and look close to the western horizon.
