The second week of June brings some fun things to search for in the night sky.

We have more planets visible and even a planetary conjunction.

Brilliant Venus and Jupiter have been a steady sighting in the west in the evenings lately.

Watch as they move closer together, followed up by the beautiful moon and Saturn in the morning.

First up will be a Venus and Jupiter conjunction on Monday and Tuesday night, June 8 and June 9.

The two brightest planets in our sky will appear to come very close together and almost look like they are touching - only 1.5 degrees will separate them.

They are both so bright that telescopes or binoculars aren’t needed, but if you do use them, they will be so close, that they’ll be in the same field of view.

Both are in the constellation Gemini.

The best time to see them will be in the western sky, about an hour after sunset. The earlier in the evening the better, as both planets will get lower and lower in the western sky and set at 11 p.m.

If you are a morning person, try looking for Saturn and the waning crescent moon early Wednesday. Both rise around 2 a.m. and will climb higher in the eastern sky before the sun rises at around 5:20 a.m.
