Star Struck - "String of Pearls"

Star Struck - "String of Pearls"

(Tribune)

Lots to see! At sunset, too close to the sun, is Mars, west. Southwest is bright Venus, brightest thing in that area. Halfway between Venus and the sun is the fainter Mercury, like a faint star. The 72% illuminated moon is in the southeast. To its right is the yellow Saturn, and further east is the bright Jupiter. These are the naked-eye planets.
