Tonight, Wednesday, September 30, 2026, the sky over the Arab world witnessed a visual conjunction between the Moon and the Pleiades star cluster, observable with the naked eye. The President of the Jeddah Astronomical Society, Engineer Majid Abu Zahra, explained that the closest approach occurred at 8:39 PM Mecca time, with an angular separation of about 0.2 degrees, though this may vary slightly depending on the observer's location. The Pleiades, known as "The Seven Sisters," are located approximately 445 light-years away. Due to the Moon's brightness, it will be challenging to see the faint stars of the cluster. It is important to note that this conjunction is only apparent from our perspective on Earth and does not represent a physical proximity in space.
