Venus is crazy bright right after sunset. Look to the west and over to the left. It’s hard to miss. Venus has been mistakenly thought to be an UFO for centuries.
Mercury is visible right around sunset, but it’s so low on the western horizon it’s challenging for most city dwellers. Find a tall building for viewing? Some nice rooftop bar. Or just a roof where you can sneak up your own cooler. Improvise dedicated sky watchers!
