FROM TODAY'S PRINT EDITIONS:
Plan to be up late this evening? Step outside around midnight and find a spot with a clear view to the east. Dominating the sky in that direction, if skies stay clear, is the waning moon and a very bright planet Jupiter. They’ll be separated by a little more than the width of your hand, held at arm’s length, with the moon above and to the left of the giant gas planet. The moon is about 252,000 miles from Earth tonight. Jupiter is about 400 million miles beyond.
