At 5 am this morning, it was possible to see the Moon very near to Mars in the constellation of Taurus the Bull. The Moon and Mars will both still appear in Taurus tomorrow morning at approximately 5 am. Mars and the bright red star Aldebaran may appear similar; however, Aldebaran appears to twinkle or scintillate, while Mars does not.
