Venus Hidden by Moon in Daytime Occultation

A lunar occultation of Venus occurred during daylight hours on June 17, visible across North America, southern Canada, northern Mexico, and parts of the Caribbean and South America. Timelapse footage captured the moon temporarily covering Venus, a rare event caused by the moon passing directly in front of the planet. Such occultations are uncommon, especially during daylight, and offer a striking view of the moon's movement across the sky.
