Venus Visits the Pleiades.
Venus has been putting on a brilliant display in the western evening sky. Next week it produces another photo / visual observing opportunity when it passes the Pleiades (Messier 45) open star cluster. On April 2 it reaches the edge of the cluster while on April 3 (Tuesday night) it lies well within the cluster. Unfortunately the Moon at around 88% phase on April 3 will produce some light pollution, but this should still be an interesting event to observe.
