A triple conjunction, appearing to some as a smiley face, will be visible in the early morning sky on April 25 in Michigan. Here's what to know.

For the best viewing of the “sort of smiley face,” look to the Eastern horizon around 5:15 a.m. on Friday morning, which is 30 minutes before the 5:45 a.m. sunrise in Phoenix.

The smiley face happens when Saturn and Venus align with the crescent moon. According to NASA, Venus will be the higher of the “eyes,” while Saturn will be the lower.
