Don't miss the moon and Saturn put on a spectacular show before sunrise June 10

Crescent moon upper left then two bright dots of light these are saturn and jupiter. on the right is a silhouette of a fir tree.

Early risers on Wednesday morning (June 10) will be able to partake in an interesting rendezvous between the moon and a bright planet. Set your alarm for 3 a.m. and upon heading outside, look due east. Make sure you don't have any tall obstructions, such as trees or buildings, in your way. You'll first notice a fat waning crescent moon, two days past last quarter phase. At that hour, the moon will stand 10 degrees above the horizon, roughly the equivalent of the width of your fist.

Then, look about 5 degrees (half a fist) to the lower right of the moon and you'll see a rather bright "star" shining with a soft yellowish-white hue. Except that's not a star, but a planet.
