On the night of 15 July in the sunset sky in North America the Crescent moon passed by Venus at a distance of less than 1 degree. Alex Barnett did the "Dating" of the village of West Bountiful, Utah.

He noted that it was a wonderful heavenly view when you can see how bright the couple becomes closer to each other. However, it can be seen today — the Moon moves away from Venus, and the sky in a line line up the Crescent moon, Venus, mercury and the star Regulus.

To see them, is to look to the West after sunset.

This month is rich in interesting to observe the phenomenon — 27 July there will be great opposition of the red planet. Currently, Mars outshines all the objects in the sky except the Sun, moon and Venus. In addition, the planet is doing what can do only very bright objects — for example, during observations you can see the green flash.
