If you’re up early this morning, take a look to the eastern sky. The sky is going to be smiling back at you.

There is a conjunction of planets with a crescent moon this morning. Venus and Saturn will be visible, which will look like the eyes in the sky, with the crescent moon as the smile.

Best view is before sunrise this morning, and sunrise will be just after 6:30 a.m.
