The new moon occurs Aug. 4 , at 7:13 a.m. EDT ( 0113 UTC) In the days following the new moon, our satellite will make a close pass to Venus .
The next day the moon will be in conjunction with Venus , passing just under 2 degrees ( about four lunar diameters) to the planet.
In the tropical latitudes it's also possible to see Mercury , which is also in conjunction with the moon on Aug. 5 .
For mid-latitude Southern Hemisphere observers the days are shorter and the sun sets sooner, which puts Venus and the moon in a slightly better position than for their Northern Hemisphere counterparts.
Saturn is the first visible planet after Venus sets; in New York the ringed planet rises at 9:40 p.m. in the constellation Aquarius.
From a darker sky site one can see the Milky Way, the misty band of light that shows the edge of our galaxy.
From the left side of the Summer Triangle , one can turn east (left) and encounter a large square of medium-bright stars; the top corner of the square is the Great Square of Pegasus , the legendary winged horse ridden by Perseus .
