Something unique is happening in the skies this week - the Moon, Venus, and Jupiter are all within two degrees of each other. The next time the two planets, Jupiter and Venus, and the moon will be visible like this will be the week of Nov. 18, 2052. The moon was the brightest of the three, but was also the smallest.  The moon came in at 252,000 miles away - Venus 94 million miles away - and Jupiter 540 million miles away... kinda gives you an idea how big Venus and Jupiter are compared to the moon. Be sure to take a look around sundown one night this week.
