The ‘goddess of love’ will shine her brightest in Kentucky skies on Valentine’s Night

Video note: Despite this article’s time stamp, the above video is the latest forecast from The Weather Authority.

KENTUCKY (FOX 56) — Venus, named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty, will gain “maximum brilliance” at night on Valentine’s Day across Kentucky skies.

Skywatchers should turn their gazes to the west just after sunset, where the hottest planet in the sun will shine as brightly as any other celestial body in the sky not named Earth’s moon.

LATEST KENTUCKY NEWS:

According to the latest forecast from The Weather Authority, viewing conditions might not be the most optimal as clouds and showers take over the skies.

Still, Venus would be really easy to spot, as she always appears just over the sunset since her planetary bound is tethered to the sun.

While not necessary, since Venus is easily spotted with the naked eye, should there be a break in the clouds, stargazers should aim their telescopes around 40 degrees in the sky and try to get an even better look.
