Here's something you might be interested in.
The Crescent Moon returns to the evening sky as a left-leaning, thin smile of light on Saturday, August 22. Look low in the southwestern sky at dusk (7:30-8pm) to spot it. On successive evenings, at the same hour, that smile will thicken and move to a position progressively farther to the left (i.e., south). By Thursday, August 27, the moon at first quarter phase will hang like a capital letter "D" right over the south horizon. The sparkling reddish star immediately to its right on that evening is Antares, the "Rival of Mars," which closely resembles the planet Mars in color.
