Brilliant Morning Star Venus continues to dazzle the pre-sunrise sky in the southeast. Earlier this week, Venus passed Jupiter. This morning they are over 4 degrees apart as Venus heads toward a conjunction with Saturn next month. The star Antares is over 8 degrees to the right of Jupiter. This morning, the gibbous moon is outside the frame. It is headed toward displays with Jupiter and Venus next week.
