Venus Meets a Razor-Thin Moon in Tonight’s Sunset Sky

TL;DR Summary
Tonight (March 19) after sunset, a slim crescent Moon sits just below Venus in the western sky. Venus will be easy to spot about 30–40 minutes after sunset, while the 1% illumination Moon will be a tricky, binoculars-helped target; if skies aren’t clear, tomorrow’s sighting should be easier.
