    Moon to block DC’s view of Venus on Wednesday afternoon

    The Moon will occult Venus during daylight hours in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday, visible from 3:48 to 5:13 EDT. Observers are advised to use optical aids like binoculars or telescopes with caution to avoid sun exposure, as the event is rare and best captured with zoom lenses or telescopes.
