An Amazing Celestial Event Is Happening At The End Of The Month And It Will Be Visible From Wisconsin

These days, making plans is nearly impossible. But there are some things the pandemic can’t stop, like celestial events - and it just so happens one is quickly approaching. That’s right; at the end of this month, Venus will shine brighter than at any other point during the year. Luckily, the mesmerizing show in the sky will be visible in Wisconsin and doesn’t require any special equipment for viewing. Take a look:

Smithsonian Magazine released a list of 10 celestial events you don’t want to miss in 2020 – and one is quickly approaching.

On April 27th at 8 p.m., Venus will achieve its greatest illuminated extent, meaning it will shine brighter than at any other point during 2020.

Set to be a spectacular sight, Venus' glow will be more vibrant than any other planet or star, making it nearly impossible to miss.

Spotting Venus in the night sky may not seem like that big of a deal since it’s often visible within a few hours of sunrise and sunset. However, on this particular April night, it will shine in full force, transforming an ordinary sight into an extraordinary one.

You don’t need any special equipment to view this upcoming celestial show.

Although, with a telescope you can see Venus’ changing phases, which are much like those of the moon.

And while Venus will be at its brightest this month, that doesn’t mean it won’t be making any more appearances during the year. On July 10th, it will be nearly as bright as on April 27th.
