Keep an eye out for a Moon-Venus conjunction, where you will see a brilliantly bright Venus shining right next to a slender crescent moon. From our viewpoint on Earth, these two celestial bodies appear visually aligned in the night sky.

Family stargazing experiences offer guided tours of the night sky, featuring telescope observations of stars, planets, and galaxies, often in dark-sky locations. Suitable for all ages, these sessions typically include laser-guided constellation tours and expert insights from astronomer.

Akutsu Cebu Observatory is the first and only public astronomical observatory in Cebu, founded by Japanese astronomer Tomio Akutsu. Located on a dark-sky mountaintop in Barangay Bonbon, Cebu City, it houses an impressive 18-inch Newtonian telescope—one of the largest in the Philippines—allowing visitors to clearly view planets, nebulae, and distant galaxies.

Three days of Jupiter and Venus's close approach.
Although there were clouds from June 8th to 10th, 2026, I was still able to enjoy watching the two planets move. The image quality is poor because it's a smartphone photo.
