Tonight the sky is smiling over planet earth. Venus and Jupiter are set to come together to light up the sky Monday night, creating a sight that many will not soon forget.

According to report:

Tonight is going to be a night that you are surely going to want to go outside and look up to the stars if you have a clear sky. A crescent moon is going to appear Monday night along with the two brightest planets right near it, Venus and Jupiter. They are likely going to be seen as these two large silver stars, but they are not stars. Instead, these bright silver stars are actually two planets which we do not get to see with our eyes too often.

Even though they will appear to be very close together, the moon, Jupiter and Venus will be very far apart. The moon will be roughly 250,000 miles from Earth, while Venus will be 93.2 million miles away.  Jupiter will be 540.3 million miles away.

A lovely Smiley Face

Looks kinda cute, don’t you think so?
