The moon and Venus will practically meet in the night sky on Wednesday.
As far as celestial objects in the night sky go, the moon is by far the brightest, with Venus coming in a distant second. On Wednesday , you'll be able to spot the two making a close approach.
That approach, technically called an appulse, will be visible Wednesday from New York between 7:52 a.m. EST and 7:59 p.m. EST , according to skywatching site. Of course, the majority of that period is during daylight hours, which will make observing the appulse a little tricky. But since the sets at 5:38 p.m. EST in New York City, that gives you a few hours in the evening for solid viewing.
