The Last Quarter Moon is Monday April 21. Jupiter and Mars are visible in the evening sky. Jupiter forms a line with the stars Aldebaran and Elnath and sets mid evening. Mars is high in the early evening sky forming a line with the bright stars Castor and Pollux. Look for the constellation Corona Borealis in the morning skies, the blaze star T Coronae Borealis (TCrB) may go Nova eventually. Saturn, Venus and Mercury are visible in the morning twilight. Mercury is close to Neptune on the 17th and 18th and at its highest on the 22nd.

If you look to the North at astronomical twilight (90 minutes before sunrise), you will see a prominent bright white star, Vega, if you look northwest you will see a dainty circlet of stars. Corona Borealis, the northern crown. The blaze star T CrB is located on the right-hand side to the circlet, where the line of stars turns down, there are no other bright stars in the region, so when it erupts it will be easily visible. Viewing tips at my T CrB post.
