“April's Moon and the Pleiades” is copyrighted by Jerry Lodriguss (Catching the Light). NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteAfter parting with the Sun, April's three-day-old crescent Moon shared the early evening sky with the nearby Pleiades star cluster. The Moon's sunlit crescent is overexposed, while the lunar terminator, the boundary between lunar night and day, is jagged with craters and mountains. Lunar surface features in the dim lunar night are illuminated by earthshine, light from sunlit planet Earth.
