土星、月、金星が並んで見えた, Saturn, the Moon, and Venus lined up

空で土星、月、金星が接近, Saturn, Moon and Venus Close Together in the Sky

2025年1月4日(土)の日の入り後の空で、上から土星、細い月、金星が並んで見えました。明るさは金星がマイナス4.5等程度で大変明るく、月と一緒に写真を撮ってもよく見えました。土星は1.2等程度なので星の中では明るいのですが、月と並ぶと小さく暗いので写真ではよく見えません。でも拡大すれば見えます。

After sunset on Saturday, January 4, 2025, Saturn, the thin moon, and Venus were visible lined up from above. Venus was very bright, about magnitude -4.5, and was clearly visible when photographed with the moon. Saturn is about magnitude 1.2, making it bright among the stars, but it is small and dim next to the moon, so it is difficult to see in photographs. However, you can see it if you zoom in.
