New DelhiMoon & Saturn – A Dusk Encounter
On this evening, the Moon and Saturn share the same right ascension, with the Moon gliding 4°01′ north of Saturn- a cosmic rendezvous not to be missed.
From New Delhi:
Look up from 18:06 IST, as dusk fades, with the pair shining high at 57° above the southern horizon. They’ll slowly drift westward, setting around 23:37 IST.
The Moon glows brightly at mag –11.8 in Pisces.
Saturn shines softly at mag 0.9 in Aquarius.

Visible to the naked eye and beautiful through binoculars, this pairing is a reminder of how planets and our Moon share the same stage in the evening sky.
