Rare conjunction: Jupiter and Venus just a kiss away from each other

Both Jupiter and Venus have been observed inching a little closer in the sky on March 1, 2023.  they came extremely close to each other, separated by merely 0.52 degrees in a rare event. As per NASA, there’s a meetup happening in the western sky: the crescent Moon sits close to Jupiter, with Venus below them. Jupiter and Venus will continue to cosy up until March 1, when they’ll be at their closest. The event being hailed as the “the perfect trifecta” has created a buzz among astronomy enthusiasts as people are on a photo spree to share images of the night sky as they wait for the final showdown. NASA said that conjunctions do not have any profound astronomical significance but they are mesmerising to look at.
