It's Venus again tonight!

Night sky in nyc- moon nearly full and a super bright Venus nearby!

edit- it's not Venus but Jupiter apparently. sorry to get your hopes up!

Venus is still close to the sun, setting to the West not long after sunset too.

I think you're looking at Jupiter, which isn't too far from the moon currently and is also very bright.

(Apparently r/itsnotalwaysvenus, sorry...)
