The Moon and Venus side by side on July 17, 2026 from Buenos Aires

Only 1.8° apart: less than the width of your little finger at arm's length.

Times are local (GMT-3).
One notification in the late afternoon, only on nights with something worth going out for over Buenos Aires: a very bright ISS pass, a Starlink train, a meteor shower peak, planets together, a supermoon or eclipse, or a bright comet. Only the city is stored, not your location.
Put Buenos Aires's sky in your calendar
Full moons, meteor showers, eclipses and bright ISS passes (with a 10-minute reminder) appear in your calendar and update by themselves.
The Moon and Venus meet in the evening sky after sunset: two bright lights almost touching.
How to watch
- No equipment needed: look for two bright points unusually close together.
- Binoculars fit both in one view; a phone on night mode catches them over the horizon.
- They stay close for a few days around the date: a cloudy night is not the end.
