2022 January 06 - The Last Days of Venus as the Evening Star

In today's image, we see several images of Venus appearing as a crescent. These are the last days where Venus will be the evening star (for now.) It will disappear as it passes close to the Sun and reappear in a few weeks in the morning star before sunrise.
