The pair of celestial objects will be separated by less than a degree, less than twice the apparent diameter of the full moon.

This means that as well as being an easy spot with the naked eye, they are close enough to fit into the same field of view when viewed through binoculars.

Regulus is the 21st brightest star in the constellation of Leo , the lion.
