Moon with the Jewels of Taurus (evening)

After posing near Jupiter the day before, Thursday evening, April 11 will 
have the waxing crescent moon hop higher in the western sky to shine above 
and between two jewels of Taurus in early evening. The bright little 
Pleiades star cluster, also known as the Seven Sisters and Messier 45, will 
be located to the moon’s lower right (or celestial west). The larger and 
sparser Hyades star cluster, which forms the triangular face of Taurus, the 
Bull, will twinkle off to the moon’s left (celestial south). The bright 
planet Jupiter shining above the horizon might catch your eye.
