Waxing Crescent Moon And Earthshine Too!

Skywatchers under clear skies will get to see a beautiful crescent Moon covered in Earthshine tonight. Earthshine is sun light reflecting off the Earth onto the non-sunlit portion of The Moon. It can be a very beautiful sight. All you need to see this beautiful event is a clear view to the western horizon shortly after sunset (currently around 5-5:30pm or so)
