You\u2019ll want to head outside to the darkest area you can find, and look east-northeast in the night sky. Mars will appear to the moon\u2019s upper right, and the contrast between the red planet and the white waning gibbous moon should be striking.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">While both bodies will be visible to the naked eye, binoculars or a telescope will illuminate all sorts of details you wouldn\u2019t otherwise be able to see, so either is highly recommended. <\/p>\n<h3 class=\"\">One more thing: <\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">What makes this particular conjunction especially neat is the brightness of Mars. The planet has been faint all year, but as the Earth has caught up to it, Mars has been steadily brighter in the night sky all month. This will keep happening until Jan. 16, 2025, when the Earth will pass between Mars and the sun (this is called \u201copposition\u201d), bringing Mars as close and bright as it gets in our sky.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"\">M\u200bORE ON WEATHER.COM<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/weather.com\/science\/space\/news\/2024-01-17-how-to-see-the-northern-lights-vincent-ledvina-aurora-guy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"\">-&#8216;The Aurora Guy&#8217; Follows His Passion To Chase The Northern Lights<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/weather.com\/science\/space\/news\/2024-04-08-total-solar-eclipse-images-north-america\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"\">The 2024 Total Eclipse, In Photos\u200b<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">\u200b-<a href=\"https:\/\/weather.com\/science\/space\/video\/astronomy-photographer-of-the-year-winners?adRef=brn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"\">And The Astronomy Photo Of The Year Is &#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><em class=\"\">Senior writer <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/weather.com\/bios\/2022-05-05-chris-deweese\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"\"><em class=\"\">Chris DeWeese<\/em><\/a><em class=\"\"> edits Morning Brief, The Weather Channel\u2019s weekday newsletter. <\/em><\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/weather.com\/science\/space\/news\/2024-11-19-moon-mars-conjunction-november-2024\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This March 2021 photo shows the conjunction between the crescent Moon and the planet Mars (on the right).
