“Jet Approaching a Crescent Moon” is copyrighted by Vincent Jacques. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteA jet airplane, leaving a contrail, crosses in front of a crescent moon. The contrail glows orange because the setting sun's light is scattered by the air, leaving only the red and orange hues to reflect off the contrail. This alignment of Earth, Moon, and contrail creates a striking image.
