The Crescent Moon 🌙 Occults Venus in Broad Daylight
I was on hand to capture the moment Venus disappeared behind the moon at 09:40hrs BST on November 9th 2023.
The lunar occultation of Venus refers to a natural phenomenon in which the Moon passes in front of Venus, obstructing it from view. Since the orbits of Venus and the Moon are tilted at different angles relative to the ecliptic, occultations happen infrequently.
