A telescope or binoculars will be needed to see the Moon passing in front of Venus tomorrow, given the bright daytime sky. Finding them in the blue daytime sky may not be trivial. It will be visible from only some locations on the Earth.

For me at the northwesternmost point in Wales, Venus rises with the Moon already covering it, and will emerge at the edge of the Moon's bright limb at 11:35 BST (10h 35m UTC), but the altitude of Venus will be only 2.6 degrees: challenging to observe.

From Athens, Venus will disappear behind the dark limb of the Moon at 12:35 local time (09h 35m UTC) and will reappear at the bright limb at 13:53 local time (10h 52m UTC).

For example, from Berlin, Venus will disappear behind the dark limb of the thin crescent Moon at 11:37 CEST (09h 37m UTC) tomorrow morning (Monday, 14th September), and will reappear at 12:41 CEST (10h 41m UTC) tomorrow afternoon.

Popular astronomy: the Moon will appear close to Venus in the evening sky tonight, best seen from the Southern Hemisphere of the Earth.

A daylight occultation of Venus will occur from some places on the Earth, when the Moon will pass in front of Venus.
