With amazing things happening in our sky every day we have highlighted a few things to look out for in the next few days. (Remember to check the best time to see it in your area since times will vary).

June 4 (Evening):
About one hour after sunset, look toward the west-northwest for Venus and Jupiter close together. They will be about 4.9° apart, so they should look like two bright points near each other in the sky. Venus will be the brighter one, and Jupiter will be nearby. You do not need a telescope for this one, but binoculars could make it more fun to view. You can look for them every evening of the week and they will get closer to each other.
