For early risers from tomorrow Venus appears very close to the Beehive Cluster. Look northeast with binoculars before dawn. Best when the sky is fairly dark. Venus is very bright and easy to spot from around 3.30am. 🔭 🧪

I want to live in a universe where I get to see cool stuff without getting up so early.

There is a way. Set up a camera to record the sky all night, then watch the recording at your leisure during daytime.
